    Please vote on the Poll. All answers can be seen by the members.

    If you used a brand not showing then please respond with the make.

    I'm talking about both cement-based and dispersion. And I'm asking which brand in general did you use the most?

    It might be due to trust, availability, customer preference, whatever. Just if you totted up the lot you used, which one did you use and buy the most of ?...

    This is for 2011 only , 2010 can be found HERE .....2009 can be found HERE ..... 2008 can be found HERE and mid-2006 to the end of 2007 can be found HERE.

    I'v used Mapei, evostik, bostik but I believe I'v used Dunlop more this year as the shop handing me a lot of work are stockists.
    I'v been very impressed with Dunlop too even under severe heat etc.
    I still prefer mapei's keraquick though. Lol.
    So Dunlop got the most use.

    Butech again for me this year, closely followed by Mapei and I've also used a fair old amount of Creative Impressions GBTA. Interestingly I've only used about 10 bags of BAL gear this year and that's all I ever used to use.

    I only ever use Mapei's gear from Mapeproof 1k turbo surface membrane, through latexplan trade or renovation screed, eco prim then keraquick addy's and grout for price to quality ratio i do find their products to be one of the best. Used to use alot of BAL but they are rather expensive and not much if any better in my opinion.

    How many did we get last year ...or the years before. More votes make the result fairer.

    Surely we have more than 48 proper tilers on here ??? ( Lol that was bait)
