Evo stik adhesive

[bigmal]

Just had delivery of 300mm x 600mm porcelain tiles for bathroom.
All round helpful builder mate said BAL GREENSTAR was good stuff.
I've also seen this EVO stuff in toolstation...
Toolstation > Adhesives & Sealants > Tile Adhesive & Grout > Extra Grab Tile Adhesive
Anyone any preference/recommendations? ta very much!

you can't use tubbed adhesive for that size of tile,tubbed adhesive only caters up to about 300mm2 and says on the tubbs nowadays,you will need a cement based adhesive,flexible if the substrate has any movement

As David says, you can't fix tiles that size with tubbed adhesive. Needs to be powder based. If you are stuck for a "proper" tiling outlet near you, check out the "Buildfix" stuff in B&Q. It is made by Mapei and will do a good enough job for you.

its not advisable to use tubbed with pocelain anyway as the tiles are vitrified
