Mapei S2 Quick vs Keraquick & Latex - Tile Advice

[Peter]

Is there any real difference in these two adhesives other than the price? Do they have the same flexibility when set?

 

[DHTiling]

IMO yes... S2 quick is a nice adhesive..

 

[On one]

Goes a long way as well!

Good job, got some today for a job but hadn't tried it yet. Still about a tenner dearer than I'd like though :lol:

I generally use Keraquick on all my floors, adding latex as required. When you say it goes a long way, how much further does the S2 Quick go than Keraquick. Am I right in thinking its one of those rubber crumb jobbies, a bit like BAL Single Part Fast Flex?

Personally, I find the Keraquick / Latex plus combo.......More sticky!....if that makes sense!

Never used Keraquick so I am unable to compare like for like. Yes, it is bit like Fast Flex.....it's bugger clean off and the little black rubber crumbs end up getting everywhere

Think I'll stick to Keraquick, 'scuse the pun. Fastflex is horrible stuff to work with.

 

[DHTiling]

It is a lot smoother than fast flex..

Was great stuff, a lot cleaner than other rubber crumbs and was even able to use ivory grout after. My suppliers have stopped doing 2pf so this is a good substitute.

Got about 5m a bag with 600s and a 12mm trowel so not bad coverage.
