FlexBond 50 lb. White Crack Prevention Mortar

This has been may go-to mortar for my recent bathroom renovation to secure cement board and then tile. It came highly endorsed by the manufacturer of the cement board. My only critique would be that it was challenging to mix the entire bag and use up quickly before drying. I learned after the first blunder to mix half the bag at a time to have a better mixed batch and prevent drying. Will use again!

Using it to install glass Wall shower tile and mosaic stone floor tiles. Worked perfectly.

We are not a pros, so we do not have a lot of experience with placing glass tile, however, we have learned a lot, and the FlexBond is only thinset we've found for large format glass tile. My wife and I are putting glass tile in two showers, over a waterproof membrane, which has the potential to create a lot of issues for modified thinset. We began by troweling on a smooth layer, covering all of the walls with the Flexbond and letting that dry. Then smoothing any rough spots we made with the trowel. We did not sand it, but smoothed the rough spots by scraping with a putty knife. Then we had a porous surface to which the glass could be adhered. we used a v notch trowel (recommended by the tile manufacturer) to apply the FlexBond over the dried FlexBond surface. We combed it straight vertically, one course at a time. We also back buttered the glass tiles with FlexBond so we achieved 100% coverage on our tiles. This worked very well. We have placed as many as 10 courses without stopping, and have had no wet weight release or movement issues. We also have tried to remove a dried tile, which would have resulted in destroying the tile and or wall, so we know the bond is very good. After the FlexBond dried (usually the next day) it cleans off of the tile effortlessly. Which is likely why it's hard to find a good thinset for glass tile. The thinset will not stick to the front of the glass tile no matter what, but it will stick to the painted back very well. And it is sanded, but we have had no scratching of the tile when cleaning off the thinset. Cleaning out the grout lines is also quite easy with a linoleum knife. But do this the next day. The longer you wait, the harder it gets. After having done considerable research, and tiling, we believe this is a great product. It has performed very well. Time will tell. If you are placing large format glass tile, don't hesitate to use this product. So far, I have no negative comments, only positive.

If I'm going to work on my house, I like to use the best available products (within reason) so I don't have issues with it in the future. That's why I chose this Fexbond product. It was easy to use on my mosaic tile. What little bit that got on the top of the tiles was easy to clean off, even after it had dried.

This product was easy to mix and use, causing my tile installation to go smoothly. The powder room looks great after the project was completed. I would recommend this product for tile in different areas.

I filed over tile. 1st I used MBP, then redcoat. Then I thinset tiles. Everything is perfect

Great product I would never use any other in 1989 track home in Berkeley township nj

Worked well and is a good product to use for flooring as it is flexible.

We selected this Product because we were laying thin brick pavers on floors and wanted the extra crack prevention FlexBond provides. Floors have been down 2 weeks and so far seem great!

Easy to use and mix. Great adhesion and filling capabilities
