Good to have an update!
It’s often an issue when you use a product that is not your usual - it can take a bit of getting the mix right.

It’s a subjective issue though. What one tiler likes another dislikes. I’am just trying to get a balanced discussion on the merits of different products as I’d hate to think your comment could bring down a multinational company that has been producing tiling products longer than you have been tiling.
