Can I use ceramic wall tile adhesive on sheet vinyl?
I'm installing sheet vinyl on my basement floor and ran out of
adhesive with about ten sq ft remaining. I could buy a quart of adhesive, but I've got some wall tile adhesive left over from a kitchen remodeling job that will likely be discarded the next time I clean out my storage area. Could I use this on my sheet vinyl floor? |

Mike, I don't suppose anyone will say yeah, go ahead. They look
the same, they smell the same. I'd go for it, but that is not a chemist speaking, nor anyone who has tried it before. Might call the glue manufacturer's 1-800 number tomorrow. You already know they won't give you a strong go ahead, but they could tell you how dissimilar the adhesives might be. -- ______________________________ Keep the whole world singing . . . .

Could I use this on my sheet vinyl floor? Yes, go right ahead. I'd be happy to hear that an idiot like you ruined $500 worth of flooring because you were too ****ing cheap to spend another $5 on a quart of the correct adhesive. I'll look forward to reading you whine an cry after that ceramic adhsive melts through the vinyl and disscolors those 10 feet of flooring. I wish you the worst and hope you really **** up your floor you stupid moron. With any luck, you'll not be able to pay your mortgage after you drain your life savings to have a professional replace what you ****ed up, and you will lose your home to forclosure, lose your wife in the process, and your children and dog will run away to escape you. YOU ARE A ****ING IDIOT !!!! I see four possibilities, he 1. You were beat up a lot when you were a kid and, as a result, have some serious self esteem issues. 2. You don't know the answer, but needed to impress your girlfriend who was watching you post 3. You know everything there is to know and have no patience for those of us who were not born with this information at our fingertips. 4. I know you are but what am I? |

I'd suggest applying some on a piece of scrap vinyl and see what happens. If it's good after a few days (a weekend project, maybe?), I'd go for it. |
