I'm a tiler of over 25 years, I appreciate reply is late but it may help others. For any wood subfloor (you should avoid OSB, especially in bathrooms as its prone to rot) you need to prime with either PVA diluted 50:50 or much better is SBR again 50:50. Apply liberally over the whole floor with a roller, leave it to dry in a little then crack on with adhesive and matting.
Can I use the same tile adhesive to stick the matting down as the one I will be using to lay the tile
Is the 5mm gap between each sheet or the perimeter of the room. Very unclear in the video
what about installing on plywood, do you need to prime the plywood?
It must be worked according to the instructions of the tile adhesive because it has to stick securely to the ground.
@@DURALPROFILE Thanks for the reply.
I ended up just wiping down the ply with a wet sponge before laying the matting down.
