Home Improvement Question....

Has anyone used Ditra, and if so what Thinset Mortar did you use with it?

http://www.johnbridge.com/forum is probably a better place to ask that question.

But from a bit of poking around on the site and looking at the specs, etc. (and my recollections from my days as a journeyman tile setter), it looks like you use unmodified thinset for everything except wood, and latex modified thinset if bonding directly to wood. The correct trowel size appears to be 11/64” x 11/64”.

Open up the Schluter handbook....there is a wealth of knowledge to be read. I'm also looking at Ditra and this was the first place i went.

Ok I'm asking about this because what I read was Mapei Kerabond was better then Mapei Keraflor thinset. The issue I can get Keraflor but I can't get Kerabond without ordering it. So I'm confused on what people are using....
