    Default Tile over Bitumen/Asphalt tiles ?

    Hi All,

    New to forum so not sure if posting in right place.

    I have been offered a 22 sqm floor job,Substrate is concrete however
    there is a black bitumen/Asphalt coating over floor which is the residue
    from 60s style vinyl tiles ! Very hard to remove ..Would accrylic sealer
    with a fast flex adhesive be suffice ?

    Cheers
    ian.

    Hi Ian, if this is just ATA residue then I would try to remove as much of the (asphalt tile adhesive) ATA ,as poss, then use a slurry bond mix 50/50 SBR + single part cement based adhesive. If you search the forums for similar threads you may get some more suggestions.

    Good luck
