thinset color and marble tile
Hello, I am tiling my floor with marble tile this weekend and picked up a
50lb bag of Mapei ultraflex rx thinset grey color. I have heard that you should use white thinset with marble. Is the grey thinset okay or should I go with white? The marble tile is mainly white. regards Steve |

It doesn't state anything on the package. It just says that the thinset is
grey. Guess i'll go with white from another store because they didn't have any white thinset specifically for marble at the store i bought it from. "charlie" wrote in message ...
