    i use the rapid set plus for most of my floors, ......pot lifes around 20 to 30 mins, goes off quick 1 to 1 and a half hours, i prefer that, never used the standered slc, i always use the fiber base slc..

    Cheers Andy, used a lot of the fibre stuff the last few weeks, the green one not worth it?

    Mapei doesnt even make the top 3 for addy & grout for me.

    Good Good, Yeah got the invite, not sure if we are going to be able to make it though, im going to try to get up, work will dictate it next week.
    Used 2 bags of weber today, good stuff & as you say a cracking price, adhesive sticks like the proverbial.
    Took a job on at short notice, entrance hall of flats in johnstone, bit of a nightmare but got most of it tiled today, about 20 metre, go back & finish tomorrow.

    Yeah let me know, i am (maybe) a bal man but i could be easily swayed with the weber gear i have used. it was the weber.set rapid plus (concrete) addy we bought. very good to work with & quick setting.
    Used the rapid spf white a couple of months ago & it was really good to work with.

    I was using weber floor flex too for the first time in a wetroom today and was well impressed. Easily mixed and a lovely flow to it. Will defo use again.
