What Customers Are Saying

This tile adhesive product has received mixed reviews. Many users found it easy to apply and reported good adhesion, but a significant number experienced issues with the adhesive not curing or drying properly, leading to tiles becoming loose or falling off. Some also noted strong fumes. The product may be suitable for smaller, less demanding tile projects, but may not be reliable for larger jobs or high-moisture areas. Careful consideration of the specific application and product guidelines is recommended before use.

Nice product

Would Recommend

Used this on my bathroom remodel, tiled a shower and an accent wall behind a freestanding tube. It does have a bit of a strong on the odor but just opened the window and put on the exhaust fan. Took a little longer to dry than grout but I put a shop fan on it and it was dry within 24 hrs. We are doing our kitchen next and definitely will be using this adhesive again.
