Good flooring adhesive

Great product, really easy to lay the laminate on, i found it easier to apply to the back of the boards rather than the floor. Just need a decent spreader to go with it. has been down for a while now and flooring seems to be well secure still. Was one of the cheaper options but definitely did the job

Having never used a product like this before, I entered my whole project with a certain amount of trepidation. I chose a brand which I was familiar with, even though I couldn't find any information on laying luxury vinyl tiles on top of the original thermoplastic tiles. Thought I'd give it a go... Although on the tub it says for rough back tiles to use the deeper notched side of the spreader (which handily is included in the tub), this proved too much adhesive, an interesting couple of days ensued whilst we avoided/gingerly stepped on, the tiles. No harm done apart from three rather sulky dogs! Lesson learnt, the rest of the kitchen was done using the other side of the spreader - brilliant, we could use the flooring immediately Handy hint - when I entitled this 'a sticky situation' I meant it. Using thin silicone or latex gloves may be a good idea. Perhaps it was me having never done this before, but this adhesive really is sticky (I guess it has to be), but if you want to avoid your taps, kettle, door handles/steering wheel/gearstick, and everything else you touch being sticky, perhaps try the above advice. I have had many positive remarks about the flooring, and would recommend this product, even to novices like myself...

First off. The useless piece of plastic film inside that ends up half submerged as the product is not kept upright during transit. Leave it out. OK now onto using it. I fixed Karndean tiles ( see photo) on top of other Karndean tiles. Reason being they were part of a bigger area and this is a new downstairs lavatory, and the existing tiles didnt match. I took the advice of another reviewer and used a paint brush to apply a fairly thin coat onto the old tiles. Forget the spreader. Too much adhesive allows tiles to move about and as some have said make it ooze up between the joint. So I broke all the rules including using 3mm tile spacers. I started in the doorway so I was kneeling on a pad on the tiles I had just laid. Not a problem. I only applied the adhesive to the area of each tile as I worked. Slapped them down with the palm of my hand. ( a hard roller would have been an asset) Left them for about 4 hours then walked carefully all over them. No movement. So the next rule break. I grouted them with waterproof tile grout. Pressed it down well into the gaps. That will also adhere to the tiles and keep them in place. I am happy with the result. Tomorrow the pan and washbasin will be installed. Its all about how you use it. Just got most of a tub left. This size tub would cover a huge area applied in the way I have.

A bit messy, but good stuff

Well this does do the job, but 2 hours dry time? - optimistic at best. I have worked with many adhesives and sealants but I have to say this has to be one of the most awkward and infuriating I have come across.I used it to fix vinyl planks to a synthetic coated insulated floor. I followed the instructions for the first plank, this was a huge mistake. The tile oozed out glue everywhere and sat far too proud, I had to scrape virtually all the glue off. The glue is extremely sticky, you only need a very thin coat not the liberal amount recommended. I found that you had to put on very little and comb it out with the provided scraper. You must clean down as much as you can as you go along, this stuff smears everywhere, I used a cloth covered in sealant remover, this seemed to work well. (TRY IT ON A SPARE PIECE FIRST TO ENSURE IT DOES NOT TAKE THE COLOUR OUT OF THE TILE) Also mind that this glue is supposed to dry in 2 hours, absolutely not. It took 10 days before the tiles were anything like set, this was in a room with an ambient temperature of around 17 degrees. Up until this point glue oozed from the seams as soon as any pressure was applied. On the plus side once the glue had set, it was solid. It dries to a brown finish which for me as I laid light oak coloured tiles was a bonus For ease of use and drying I would rate this glue 1 star, but because it did eventually dry and stick well I have pushed it up to 3. If I ever had to vinyl tile again, I would certainly be looking for an alternative.

Seemed to work well Installing altro flooring in my van. This size tub was needed for a lwb transit, and provided ample adhesive, I wouldn't try and stretch the smaller tub for a lwb. Hope that helps another van converter as I had no idea what to use 😅 It came with a mini spreader but I didn't realise and had ordered a bigger one at the same time.

This adhesive worked grated for laying out flooring in the kitchen. It's was easy to use and really sticks the floor down well. It was quick at drying and amazing value for money.

Grosse arnaque, sur l'image on voit un pot où c'est marqué pour une surface de 20m2 hors on reçoit un pot pour une surface de 7,5 a 10m2!!!! Effectivement le pot fait bien 2,5l mais l'image est mensongère et trompeuse. Du coup aussitôt l'emballage ouvert aussitôt retourner car pour le prix c'est loin d'être intéressant
