What flexible adhesive and grout combination are you using for a wooden substrate..
After overboarding with a suitable backer board.

Changed to ultra last year and get on well with their S1 slowset sp+es in white or grey, all I really use now. The ultra grouts are good too...not had any issues with patchy greys

I use tilemaster and ultra adhesives and levellers mainly but I'm really looking for a new grout as I'm not happy with tilemaster any more I'm keen to try the karakoll grouts

Tried kerakoll eco 2 to 12 last week. Nothing spectacular. I need to try the fine stuff. Eco flex or whatever as that’s supposed to be the good stuff.

This gear was sandy and seemed similar to Bal Superflex wide joint.

Floor adhesive, I tend to use Tilemaster or Biogel No Limits or revolution with Bal MM2. I like the Bal grout despite some hating it. It’s good stuff

Kerakoll bio gel & usually Tilemaster grout 3000

I did use to add flexmaster to the grout in certain circumstances but find Kerakoll Fugalite bio epoxy grout better now if the need requires it.

Do you add GT1 to the bal grouts ?

 

[Waluigi]

No, no admix.

You don’t need to with MM2

Tilemaster Ultimate on all my floors and grouted with Micromax 2, gunmetal most of the time seems to go with everything.

Adding the flex master makes the grout 3000 stick like you know what to a blanket I found

It does doesn’t it?! Especially on the current trend of grey wall tiles.

Last lot of ultra grout I used went off stupid quick do you think it was dodgy or is it always like that .

It is a lot quicker setting than grout 3000, caught me out when I first started with it, just got used to it now mixing smaller batches etc.. Start cleaning off after about 20mins as a rule
