powder by choice for me, but if I'm doing a kitchen splashie and customer has got a reputable tubbed stuff and walls are good, I'll use itI've voted for powder, 'cos that's my preferred addy

Used power for so long now, Just dont see the point in using something that takes an age to dry, I used a tub of granfix about 4 years ago just to see if it had improved, went to drill a hole the next day and the tile was still moving!!

:mad2::mad2: that was the last time everrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!!!!!!

powered addy for me....but i do use tubbed bal or mapei for small jobs ie small splashbacks.

Bagged all the way here,again the tubbed not reliable enough for me.Takes too long and even had tiles pop off before 24hours after being put on !! just aswell i hadn't grouted so they were put back on with bagged and the rest of room checked throughly.

So you didn't stick it back on with the tubbed gear and quickly grout it?..............................are you sure..................???
