Evostik Tile on Wood flexible

[bathroomboy]

Made a big mistake buying this stuff, when I used to work for Dolphin bathrooms some years ago they used to supply it on the job.
I only got it as I was going directy onto chipboard floor ( i usually ply line) which had been previously tiled so no issues wih that. Put them down late afternoon yesterday, arrived on site this morning and the stuffs not gone off, nowhere near, still soft, really is poor product.
Lost a full day with it as I can't work in the room, hope it's set in the morning or I am in a mess.

B and Q stock it I think, its bagged but I only used it once in an emergency. Seemed ok but pricey.

I've just done a web search and can't find any evo stik tile adhesives in a bag :yikes:

It's in a 10kg tub and doubles as a grout ,a floor not that I'd use it for grouting, I usually use Dunlop or Bal, but with going on the chipboard I thought I try it as it says ok for this, I just can'd believe how slow it takes to go off, beginning to think something is seriously wrong with it.

used it once due to customer buying it,ok to work with but did go off rather quickly i thought!

I've seen it for sale in a few places, never considered using it as I always thought you could only used tubbed gear on a depth up to 3mm or it won't set.

It can take as much as over a week to dry....depending on how thick you used it....it dries just like a dispersion adhesive...

Would be quicker to pull it up and use cement based...

They stock it, I am sure its made by bostick and they supply B & Q, I have bought it on a Sunday in London to stick the last few tiles. 20 kg bags.
