Q:Is flexbond good for tiling over sturdy existing floor tile
by|Aug 24, 2023

Answer This Question

A:  It’s not always a great idea to tile over tile but if it is really hard to get up, no cracks and not glossy then I think this is the best stuff for the job. I have used it for two floor tile over tile jobs and both turned out great and holding up just like any other floor I put in.

            Given its description I was under the impression I could use it as a waterproof coating for an inground pool with the intention of overcoating it with a waterproof paint. After parging the walls and bottom of the pool this stuff started developing surface cracks as it dried.

            The product worked fine for my application of tile in an entryway and closet. It would be nice to have a mix ratio of water to mortar for the DIYer who isn't mixing the whole bag. (example 2/1, 3/1 what ever it is)
