Does BAL SPF smell?!
Evening all.
First post, and a bit of a silly one. Am working on the new ensuite at the moment and have cut and laid out the ceramic floor tiles this evening. Want to get them stuck down tomorrow night but we have some friends staying on Friday. They will be in the bedroom that the ensuite leads off.
As i'm working on the floor the door is removed. The missus is concerned that if I use the adhesive tomorrow night it might leave a stink! I've never used BAL SPF before so would appreciate any feedback.
Great forum. Have learnt loads over the last couple of weeks just from browsing!
Cheers.

No probs...make sure you make them aware the adhesive will be soft and not to walk on them...coz they will if you don't say...

Cheers Dave, will do. In fact i'll probably prop the door over the opening just to be on the safe side!
How long should SPF be left before grouting?

It's a good t&g floor, overboarded with 12mm WBP ply and stainless screws every 150mm or so.
