Quick question, I am looking to tile my bathroom floor after I take up the vinyl floor tiles(previously new concrete floor) I remember I applied a couple of coats of priming/pva before I laid the vinyl floor tiles. Does the floor need any other preparation before I lay the tiles. Not sure the effect of the adhesive from the vinyl tiles on the floor will have on the tiles. Thanks

It'll be fine. Have a read of the tiling sticky.
I had a look at the sticky but there was no mention of tiling where there had previously been adhesive vinyl tiles, I have searched google to no avail. Don't want to tile and find they loosen within a few months. Thanks
if you dont want tiles to loosen after a few months, do the job properly, if the vinyl is nice and flat, you have no problem

Actually I meant to have a look at the sticky for further help from where you're at now, after having answered your question.
