CERCOL ahahah a life with CERCOL.

i was only joking Antonio as I know they are the same company , all the italian tilers I know use cercol and kerakol, mapei is not as popular as it used to be 15 years ago

 

[Italy]

gary yes, 15 years ago a few manufacturers.
I used a few times CERCOL only f55 green fix, the rest for me it's all crap.
kerakoll NOLIMIT is very good and the cost is the same.
Italian tiler in uk? or italy?
because in my area, CERCOL is nonexistent, savers
use weber

I sometimes use cermarmo f55 s1 it is good adhesive for the price I don't like the cercol fuga / grout often dries patchy what price is mapei ultra lite s2 in Italy ,
I am going to try it out on 1800x900 thin porcelain next week and will post some pictures if it's good I may start using it

antonio well you asked last year i went to cersaie in bologna and and went around picking up the fixing spec s
from the italian surpliers of tp 90% of there adhesive was wrong there fixing methods were wrong .the tp surpliers are relying to much on the adhesive companys with a vested interest .the italian way of fixing is run by
the three wise monkeys .see no evil .talk no evil.hear no evil

do a little work here your self to find the truth .

step 1 go out buy yourself a piece of glass 600x300 will do to start

step 2 now get all the trowels you have and borrow those you dont

step 3 now get a bag of all recomended adhesives and some you like

step 4 now use each adhesive with diffrent trowels placing glass on top to see covarage and how much movement is needed to get it

step 5 the ones you cant add more water to you can now discard you have seen it with your own eyes

step 6 if you do the work you will know the answers
