Tile adhesive
Glass and resin tiles have very smooth and non-porous backs that are difficult to adhere. In this case, a highly polymer-modified adhesive such as or webercol flex, webercol max, webercol premium, webercol fast, webercol F1, webercol plus or webercol epo plus is recommended.
Apply webercol flex, webercol max, webercol fast, webercol F1, webercol plus or webercol epo plus evenly on the substrate. Use a suitable notched trowel to have a uniform thickness of 1.5 to 2 mm. Apply the mosaics on the substrate and press them firmly.
