Which glue comb for wall and floor tiles do I need?

by Jorik van der Heide on Jul 07, 2023

When applying the tile glue, it is important to use the glue comb at the right angle. Place the glue comb at a minimum 45-degree angle on the base, keeping it as straight as possible. This ensures optimal glue shivering, which helps with the glue to flow out evenly and promotes good adhesion.

Make sure the tiles are pressed firmly into the glue beads to achieve a full gluing.

Extra tip: Double gluing With tile sizes larger than 50x50 cm, the use of double gluing is recommended. This means that a thin layer of tile glue is applied to both the back of the tile and the substrate.

Double-bonding allows for better adhesion and minimizes the possibility of hollow patches, which can prevent long-term cracks and detachment of the tiles.

Therefore, the right glue comb Choosing the right glue comb is of great importance for fixing wall and floor tiles correctly. The use of the correct teeth provides a firm bond and prevents problems such as release and hollow patches. It is essential to follow the recommended teeth based on the tile format.
