MLT levelling system - Tile Advice

[Old Mod]

So a very nice man I know, a certain Mick Volponi - who happens to be responsible for the MLT levelling system, has sent me this sample kit to try.
For anyone who hasn't heard of it, it's a system from the USA which uses a combination of different straps and base plates for different materials.
The straps and cups are reusable and the base plates are consumables.
I'm also very keen to try the new T2 straps, which are one shot straps and bases in the same way as the Rubi and Genisis systems are.
The system also has rubber cap covers for sensitive materials.
It has recently been launched in Europe, and are now being made and distributed from Italy.
Hopefully they will be available thro a uk distributor soon.

I have an 1800 x 900 floor coming up in a week or so, and I'm keen to try the MLT on that floor.
So I'll review after that.

Thanks very much Mick!
