So after reading I should remove the vinyl floor in my bathroom before I tile it in procelain, I'm knee deep in that. What's next?
Should I put a layer of thin-set right on the concrete, or is it mastic? What's the difference?
And besides renting a tile-cutting saw, will any good saw cut porcelain?
Once it's in, I plan to seal the grout with the best product I can find, what about the tile itself...should it be sealed? Can I use the same stuff as I did for the grout?
