I am ready to place tile on a concrete basement floor. The floor bare and I don't know exactly what to use as an adhesive to place on the floor before applying the tile.

Any suggestions?

Hi
As long as the concrete is clean, free from paint, oil, or sealers,and doesn't have any major cracks..the a modifed thin set is what to use. It has the latex additive already in the bag, so just mix with water. All the info for mixing is on the bag.:)
