For medium sizes, floor tiles, large -format ceramic tiles, enhanced glue is suitable. It can also be used for external work.
Glue for complex surfaces is suitable for complex bases (for example, wood, old tiles), also for smooth surfaces and for glass.
Glue for powerful and heavy tiles is used for finishing stone and for laying tiles in responsible rooms with increased cross -country ability (floors of public premises).
