cleaning concrete? - Tile Advice

[Matty A]

What is the best way of cleaning a concrete floor ready for tiling i mean after sweeping it?

 

[Dan]

Well, some throw water on it while sweeping, just a bit though, some seem to PVA it but you have to make sure that is OK with the products you're using first. I just swept it well, and keep a small brush to hand while you're on your knees doing your runs of tiling.

cheers thats kinda what i thought just wasnt sure if getting small particals of dust under the adh' would have a major effect maybe im looking into what problems can occur a little too much.

Well actually they can have effect, but all you need to do is sweep, even seen some use hoovers (their own, not the customers though haha).
