Usual story, take old tiles off to find original tiles underneath!
I tile about 8 / 10 bathrooms / wetrooms a year but i have never tilled over old tiles!! I always remove and skim / TBB before tiling. In this case, there is no other option other than tile over the original tiles! Long story but that is the fact!
While taking the top tiles off and adhesive off, I noticed that it appeared that the original tiles had been painted with a thick PVA solution before that top tiling job was done.
My question is:
what prep to do on the old tiles? I will probably be using weber waterproof tile adhesive but as i said, I have never tiled over old tiles before!
Pro help appreciated!
