    This is very true.

    I have seen so many tiles pop up here in the Philippines. There are two issues.

    1) The locals use cement instead of tile adhesive when installing tiles.

    2) When using cement, they do not wet the tiles with water first. Cement needs water to cure. If you place cement onto a dry surface that can absorb moisture. The dry surface will absorb the water from the thin layer of cement that is touching it. The rest of the cement will cure fine but the very thin layer touching the dry material will not have enough water to cure properly. Therefore will will not stick as well.

    Your posts are vague and suspicious. The chances two users joined at the same time with such closely related usernames are slim. Your posts are 7 minutes apart (about how long it takes to create a new account and then post again). You use a VPN to change your location. I'm guessing all this is an attempt circumvent the post approval requirements for new users. You use dollars instead of pesos as if you don't know what country this forum is caters to. I suspect you are here for illegitimate reasons.

    If your next post doesn't make me feel confident that you are a legitimate user it will never get approved and your accounts and posts will be removed.
