I'm not sure I can get hold of the pre mixed down here so if I can only get the sbr I'd have to mix it with a addy!?

I've not mixed one up for a while but isn't I think it's 50 50 mix, acrylic primer and water then a handful of adhesive
S
Stef
Yeah, rapid set adhesive mixed with sbr.
Easy to make up & brush it onto the floor.
Don't use water, only sbr & adhesive.

Going back to the kitchen with ply just jotting the quote up now I'm allowing 4 days 7/8m2 total I'm guessing the rip up and prep will take me a day to do Wats your views !?
S
Stef
Should be ripped out in a day, depends whether the ply is nailed or screwed.
I use a big mutt pro & a little mutt, both from ScrewFix, they will batter through the nails & prise the ply up.

Up and re boarded in day 1. Tiled in day 2, grout in day 3 and home for lunch.

For the 8m floor? Including taking up old tiles and ply and re boarding. For me 400 - 450 labour. Plus materials

Could I mix this primer with a rapid set flex bagged addy!?
F
Flintstone
Yes. And put it on with a roller ideally
S
Stef
I've only ever used sbr for a slurry coat, suppose you could use it.

50/50 mix !?would a ceramic or porcalin stick to this type of base with out priming!?just so I no for future jobs🙂
S
Stef
I've tiles straight to it & also primed it then tiled.
Depends how long it's left for before tiling & if any dust or that gets on the surface.

It won't mix up as well as SBR. I tried it once to see and it didn't mix up well or roller on very well either. Get SBR and do it the right way would be my advice

Just brush on a slurry coat of adhesive, let it set & your good to go

I've also primed & tiled onto bitumen & I've never had any problems..........just wouldn't latex onto it, slurry coat first - ( always )

I think you could also use Mapei Eco prim grip, would just check that with Mapei technical first just to be sure.....
