    Ardex hands down. Good availability and the local stockists are a friendly bunch, unlike the mapei stockists! Next year though it's gonna be all Mapei as getting P9 for £13 a bag. That's compared to £29 for ardex x77 or £28 for P9 from the local stockists. Result!

    It has to be Webber for me again this year. They have kept the prices competitive and the low cost as well as the low dust keeps me going back for more.

    Last year was mostly Ardex, That is the best adhesive I have used.
    This year will be Ardex too and probably Stonefix which I dont rate to much anymore.

    I used Bostik FixCombi exclusively in 2011 because it is one of the few approved adhesives for tiling onto vinyl tanking systems.

    £29 for a bag of X77 was the bloke wearing a mask, good stuff to use but not worth that.

    Weber for me 90% for the same reasons as Deano, others I use are Ardex, Bal or Nicobond.

    BAL is my addy of choice. Mostly because it's all I've ever used and it works well so not really been tempted to experiment lol.

    Always used Bal from when I was a nipper, but Weber is serious quality for little money compared with Bal.

    Can reduce your quote greatly on large jobs

    If you look at it like that then it is Ardex out in front as they own BAL witch also means they own Dunlop.

    I was always Bal, dure to the local stockists, then they introduce Dunlop, which is loads cheaper for the same results, but then Mapei turned up and i can't fault it, price and performance wise.
