Tile adhesive is designed to resist gravity. There's no need to use grab adhesives. I tiled my bathroom ceiling with 60x30 porcelain tiles. Just back butter the tiles for good contact.
Thanks for the tip. There’s a window in my shower surround, and I’m preparing to tile it, so this is very helpful.
Great tip Big Pouse!
You are supposed to type '1st' surely!!!!
Never used that material before, looks tough. Nice work.
Thank you! Cheers!
I want to do this, can you tell me, can wall tiles go straight onto painted dry wall with scoring and pva mix?
big pouse? any relation to Pouse around the house?
Yes of course. I'm his bigger better looking brother.
What is the name of the substance?
Do you know if screwfix still sells this, I can't see to find the no nonsense instant grab?
Unfortunately they have discontinued it but they do one now called no nonsense x8. It's not as good if you have a huge gap to fill but it still works. Bit pricey currently at a tenner a tube. Hope this helps.
@@bigpouse would it still stick a 500mm x 250mm tile on the top of a window recess?
I don't want to use a batten to hold them in place.
@@TheDiamz yes for sure. As long a s the gap between the tile and surf you bond to isn't any bigger than maybe 10mm you'll be absolutely fine from my experience 👍
My mate deans doing a reveal but he dont know how can you tell him
Nice work but more adhesives should be added to the lower layer of tiles so as to raise up the lower layer of tiles to the same height/flat level with the lower metal edge. This is to allow shower water to drain away without accumulation, otherwise a thin layer of water with dirt will be kept within the lower edge causing molds and fungus over time
Thanks for the reply. I think I understand what you are saying. However, in this case, this is tiling a window reveal. It is in a bathroom yes. But not in a shower? It never gets wet. It doesn't need to be tiled. A lot of people would very often opt to simply paint it. . I hope that helps. Thanks for watching.
Looks mint that. ive used plasterboard adhesive before now. gripfill. if it saves an hour off to go buy more stuff its worth it. ive never had anyone complain about adhesive before. they never see it.
Fair play it is a quick, solid way to get the tiles on. Even the old dog Big Pouse has a few new tricks!
Cheer Nobby. It works for me and clearly works for you. Thanks for watching 👍
