Over the weekend (it now being wednesday morning) I tiled about half the
floor (30 tiles) using Unibond ready mixed tile adhesive for wooden
floors.

I then stayed off the floor until this morngin but noticed that about 5 or
6 of the tiles still move up and down by a few mm's. I assumed that I
hadnt glued it properyl so I took one of the tiles up (which happened to
be at an edge). I found that the glue underneath hadnt really set
particularly hard - it was easy to scrape the glue off the floor with an
old chisel.

Im assuming that the glue sets when the moisture evaporates. If this is
correct, does hte fact that the ply is waterproof, thick and painted with
glue make this understandable ? or is something else wrong ?


I've used this adhesive for tiling part of a worktop. It takes a very,
very long time to set - much longer than it says on the pot. You need to
allow a week before you walk on them.

The large tiles will also slow things down. Don't worry, just wait.
