Hello,
I am new to this forum but it looks like a respectful place to get advice! I have read a lot of Taunton books on remodels and have done a lot of minor remodels but never tile done from scratch. I want to do this retile job correctly and with the best materials.
MAPEI must have 10 different mortar systems. But, which one should i use for ceramic tile on CBU on 3/4 inch subfloors and for CBU on studs for wall applications? I would also like to use the same thinset mortar for attaching the CBU to the subfloor.
MAPEI seems like a reputable company with a wide range of products that i can get easily at Lowe's. However, the Lowe's experts are not very well trained in MAPEI products.
Thanx,
Tim
