I'm sure I had a tub of that once it's so gritty, As you trowel on the wall half just rolls off, It stuck to every thing except where you wanted it to. It was KAK

Yeah, i used it once.
It was being pushed by one of their reps. so i gave it a try.
It was on a small bathroom floor i used it. Never had any comebacks, but i just didn't like the idea of a readymix on floors for some reason. So i've not used it since.

I see in the spec that it can be used for vitrified tiles, but i was told it was no good for porcelain.
Surely shomeone has mad a mishtake there
