hi folks.
I'm about to lay some metro wall tiles over two disused fire hearths, just to tidy them up.
Was just about to lay them and noticed the adhesive I was about to use (standard wall tile adhesive) says for porous substrates only. Common sense really, but wasn't thinking when I picked up a little tub or ready mixed adhesive.
Both hearths are made of simple flags - one is a fake polished granite/slate looking surface, the other is rougher - looks like a big standard patio flag.
Could someone advise on the best adhesive (no one will be standing on them), would it be standard non flexible floor tile adhesive? Don't want to have to lay hardie backer if I can avoid it. Cheers.
