Thin Set Tile Adhesive

Recommended Posts

Yesterday 3 tiles popped up on my swimming pool.

Extreme heat for the last 2 weeks and maybe gap between the tiles too small, but these 3 tiles are the only ones that have pooped and all the others have the same gap between them.

I was thinking I would clean them up and re-glue them into place.

I would like a recommendation on thin set adhesive to use. 

Something like just a smear of adhesive on the tile and concrete base.

The underlayment is fine... the thin set used originally was more than likely the cheapest possible and not really for wet installations... just find a tube of acrylic adhesive and you will be good to go... do not clean up surfaces... just dust and glue

What underlayment? There is none.

Why are people arguing about underlayings, whatever that is, when the OP is about glue to stick a tile. 

Purchased the 'nails' and about to do it today. Also ordered the SS316 bolts etc from Abpron Bangkok link given. Nice people. One wonders why pool shops sell pool ladders with no SS316 bolts.

Thanks again.
