    Default Keraflex maxi...

    Following on from my other thread it looks like I will be using some kind of large format porcelain tiles on the kitchen floor.

    Is keraflex maxi ok to use on the floor if I can manage to leave it a day without walking on it?

    When I used it for doing the walls in the bathroom a couple of years ago it came out about 19 quid a 20kg bag. Now the cheapest place I seem to be able to get it is screw fix at 26 quid / 20kg as the local place I normally buy from has moved over to stocking granfix and its a 30 mile trek to the next nearest mapei stockist Has the price gone up or is it just the lack of suppliers local to me?

    Just before I go buy the stuff, I just want to double check that keraflex maxi white will be suitable for a cream 600x600 porcelain tile laid onto a screed that has been levelled with an SLC?

    Cheers

    Matt
