Which Tile https://www.tilersforums.com/forums/tile-adhesive/ Did You Use Most During 2009?
Please vote on the Poll. All answers can be seen by the members.

If you used a brand not showing then please respond with the make.

I'm talking about both cement-based and dispersion. And I'm asking which brand in general did you use the most? It might be due to trust, availability, customer preference, whatever. Just if you totted up the lot you used, which one did you use and buy the most of?

This is for 2009 only

ALL TILE https://www.tilersforums.com/forums/tile-adhesive/ POLLS - WHICH TILE ADHESIVE BRAND DO YOU USE THE MOST?


ADDED: If you work for any of the https://www.tilersforums.com/forums/tile-adhesive/ companies please refrain from voting. I've reduced the Mapie vote count by 3 to make it fair. We don't allow any staff from the firms to vote as we can't allow all firms on the forums due to the sponsorship system. Thanks for understanding.

Mainly BAL (tubbed) but Toppfix on the cement...Tile Giant still a bit to far away to use daily.. (and there's a tunnel in the way):oops:

Mostly BAL for me, but I do use Toppfix for floors (including my own). However, I'm really going off BAL GRIP because during the few days of Summer it went off really quickly in the tub. I'm now moving over to Single Pt. flex for walls. Cheers Sean

Palace for me, well that cheapo muck Topps sells as their own.

Tight assed customers being the main reason, though, Bal probably isn't that far behind thinking about it.

I refuse to submit to the cheap Topps pricing and have stuck to Ardex, with Mapei a close second.

some very interesting reading comparisons to be made between the gear used in the U.K. & Oz.
Ardex/BAL/Dunlop there are Ardex/ABA/dunlop here - & sounds like they're having same problems.
we also have Mapei - PCI & Laticrete as international brands (kera koll came & went)with local presence but only Mapei seriously manufacture. We also have a doz. other local Co.s of varying sizes & market share. it is curious that we can all be doing the same trade & yet doing it so differently.
might make an interesting long term topic itself ??

i see a lot of people hear tell that mapei is great and not expensive. this is good.

bal far to expesnive and not worth all the money extra. it like they think of number and times by 100.

i have pci and sometime weber here onsite. boss buy in on wooden square, a lot of bags. very good and boss tell me it cheap. i like pci much. nice consitency and easy to work
