Best is yet to come! 😃 You can take any good brand. Take polymer modified cementitious grout or epoxy grout if temperature variation of the floor is not expected to be very high like in terrace or outdoor. Thank you. - Team OTF
For areas where water leakage possibilities are high, epoxy grout is better (say bathroom, kitchen, etc) . For other areas Polymer modified Cementitious tile grout is good and economic. Epoxy deteriorates if exposed to Sun. In general, if there thermal expansion is not expected and tile is porcelain, epoxy grout shouldn't give trouble. Pl tune in to podcast related with grouts and adhesives for better understanding. Thank you. - Team OTF
No one can predict the quality of tiles that you received just on the basis of name of brand. Brand name gives to a general perception that reputed brands might give you Consistent quality and if something goes wrong, they will attend and provide solution or explanation. Thank you. - Team OTF
@@cooper8990 Thing is that your substrate must be strong and not too rough to get best results with thin-set tile adhesives. The screed / plaster should be good and intact. Thank you. - Team OTF
@pushpamkumar3994 Thank you for your participation. In fact, last segment was in response to your earlier comment which we Forwarded to DV. Thanks. - Team OTF
@@dineshvyasOTF100% agree with sir, tiles are the best flooring material available considering various parameters. Also, watching these videos made me make an informed decision, again thanks to the whole team for excellent efforts.
Sir as you suggested that adhesive thickness should not increase 8mm or 10mm for effective and proper adhesion. Sir one more thing to add in this is that we must apply adhesive to both tile surface and the surface to which it is to be applied like wall or floor for proper adhesion results or prevent the tile from falling or getting removed many mason to finish the work quickly what they do is they apply adhesive to the tile surface or wall surface any one of it. 2. Sir for applying tiles on wall if we have removed the old plaster and applied new plaster with waterproofing is it necessary make it rough for friction as suggested by mason or we can directly use top type 4 adhesive as it promises bonding strength upto 2 to 3 N for elevation as well. I don't want to destroy my waterproofing as its bathroom so please suggest what should i do should i allow chisel hammer for friction or type 4 adhesive will do its work?? Tile size is 2 by 4 porcelain.Please help sir 🙏🙏
@@shivkumarupadhyaySku 1. Wetting of tiles is very imp for large tiles. Reason is that there should be min 90% contact area. 2. Tile Adjesive do not require too rough surface. bond strength comes by chemical action. As such porcelain tiles do not have porosity to create physical bond with cement. Thank you. - Team OTF
@@dineshvyasOTF sir but in one of your videos it was suggested that for porcelain tiles if using adhesive wetting is not required at all. There is a confusion please help with that
@@shivkumarupadhyaySku The technical term "wetting" here means covering of tile back side with the tile adhesive paste. The context in ceramic vs porcelain tile was that we do not require soaking of porcelain tiles in water... wet in that sense and in that context. Hope it is clear now. Happy tiling !
@@dineshvyasOTF Thanks a lot sir its clear now sir. But sir one more thing i need to know only wetting of tile is important not wall we don't need to apply adhesive on both wall and tile or tile and floor on Roff official channel they suggest while tiling adhesive need to be applied on both the surfaces for proper adhesion but the thickness should not increase 10 mm please help me with this.
For long term, tiling is good. Provided, it is done correctly. Tiling fails not because of tiles, but some ignorance and compromised method. Pl tune in to this earlier podcast. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-aMEAdiNfFnA.htmlsi=Bu0zgbjWylHoU7S1
