Default Adhesive for Green Marble Tile?

Lock Bar wrote:
Hi Folks, I am remodeling a bathroom and I had the idea of myself laying down
about 30 square feet of nice green marble floor tile. The price of the tile is
approx. $7.00 per square foot, and I'm not arguing about that. But the salesman
at the tile store told me that green marble floor tile requires a special epoxy
based adhesive. He said green marble is so porous it stands a good chance of
warpage and discoloration if standard floor tile adhesive is used. The special
epoxy adhesive will run me around $150-$200 just to lay down this 30 feet of
tile! I just want to know if I'm being "hosed" here on the epoxy story, and if
that glues cost is way out of line. Any advice will be appreciated.


he's right. latapoxy. latapoxy 300 to be exact.
