What Customers Are Saying

The tile adhesive product is generally effective and easy to use for a variety of tile installation projects. The premixed formula is convenient, allowing for quick and simple application. However, some customers experienced issues with the product not fully curing or drying in the expected timeframe, leading to loose or unstable tiles. There were also reports of a strong odor. For larger tiles or wet areas, a traditional mortar-based adhesive may be more suitable.

Great for DIYers

Would Recommend

The consistency and adhesive characteristics of this product are very good. I used this mastic for small (~3.5") hexagon mosaic tiles for a backsplash. I've never done tile before but from the research I did this was the best for beginners doing smaller format tiles on drywall (not in a wet environment like a shower). As a beginner it was very forgiving, and having it pre-mixed was especially helpful since I didn't know exactly what consistency to look for. I'd use it again for sure.

Response from MAPEI

It is definitely easier to work with, but keep in mind the larger your tile the longer you need to keep the installation ungrouted. Mastics/pre-mixed...

Simple and easy.

It is easy to use and offers good adhesion for smaller tile applications. Appreciate its creamy texture and the convenience of being pre-mixed, which eliminates the need for mixing.
