the tile master light weight is an excellent product I use it a lot when fixing the thin tiles , mosaic and wall tilng with porcelain , high yield excellent grab , you need to mix it with more water to a loose consistency but it firms up in the bucket after a few minutes and is lovely to work with

Thanks for the response how many square metres do you get from one bag roughly because if you do get 9/10 square metres out of a bag it really would be a brilliant product

Gary shush :lol:
No secrets Gary........let em know! :hurray:
How many metres do you tend to get Gary/Pete from a 15kg unit using say a 10mm notch on a relatively decent substrate? How many metres would you get from a normal flexi adhesive?

Mark, did you ever get a Northern Ireland supplier sorted? Busting to try out some of the range but the only option at present involves bringing a pallet over myself.
Personally I find that Tilemaster Adhesives Lightweight saves tiling time. The grip on walls is outstanding, press and twist and forget it - even with 600x300 tiles, It makes tiling the top of window recesses much quicker, and you can tile straight down from a bath edge to the floor with hardly any messing about. I discussed this with my tile supplier who tells me that it uses a new technology using glass particles - apparently no other adhesive manufacturer has this technology at the moment. Mark from Tilemaster might be able to advise if my information is correct. So quite apart from better coverage per bag, it measurably saves you time when fixing a whole bathroom.

Have been using this technology since about 2007 :lol:

My local supplier of tilemaster don't stock it.....
Peter, sorry for the delayed response. Good news, yes we now have a stockist in N.Ireland - NFC Trading in KilKeel. Very nice company, decent people and they are very keen to push our products where ever possible. How far is Kilkeel from you?
There are internet based suppliers that may be able to help out, or are you able to suggest a potential stockist in your area who may be interested in stocking some of our products?

They don't keep the light weight in stock at tile town, not enough demand for it.
Well demand it then!!!
East Midland Ceramics in Nottingham do stock Light Weight in decent volume and they do offer the adhesive through their website.

Good news Lee. I used it for the first time recently and got 12 m2 with a 6mm notch. Right good value.

About as far away as possible but thanks anyway, will contact them and see if they're ever passing by with a few bags.
