Gripfill for tiling??

[mikethebuilder]

Hi,
I,m a self employed joiner/builder and im doing some tiling for a guy on my road,ive tiled many times before and used Bal adhesives all the time.
I have 25 tubes of Webbgrip(Gripfill type grab adhesive in a tube),It says on the tube that it can be used with ceramics,And ive just stuck a few on my outhouse and they seem to stick fine with it,i just want to use them up.
would any of you pro tilers recommend this or have used it in the past?
i thought that it would be ok if grouted properly.

cheers
Mike

if its your own house thats your choice ,personally i dont think it would be a good idea to do someone elses with it

I agree with L & R Ceramics, i wouldn't use it for a paying customer.

I wouldn't use it mate to be honest....

Oh Bugger!

Thanks fella's, Any reasoning behind it?,It says it sticks ceramics and the tests on the outhouse today look rigid.

Where are you wanting to use it,T o tile what?

[mikethebuilder]

A bathroom ,tiles r about 5" square,it is waterproof and i thought if it was grouted properley then the moisture couldnt get behind the tile anyway.

i agree with al these chaps and say no too, its like blankety blank lol

I think I'd stick to tiling the outhouse with it. This stuff would probably be fine if you were doing a repair job and replacing a tile or 2 but the chances are your gunna make more work for yourself and you'll be constantly wondering if your mates kids are getting tiles stuck in thier heads at bath time. For the price of a tub or 2 of good stuff and a bag of flex.......... well.
You never know if its gunna expand/shrink or what with these multi purpose products.

If you could trowell it on and get a good bed then maybe- but as this will be probalbly dotted on then no.
Use the correct adhesive for the appilication.
This stuff would probably stick bricks together, but you wouldn't use it to build a house with, would you ?
