    Got my first conservatory to do in a few weeks and wondered what would be the best adhesive to use? I'm fitting lvt ontop of ply. All advice welcomed

    Its not that bad it's for my parents using left over from there kitchen and another job I did recently. I thought I had read somewhere that the ht only went up to 27 degrees but mapei eco fix says 35 degrees?

    Did matt not say about f46 being higher resistance to temp than ht? Not sure was a while ago and can't find a thread through search.

    Epoxy majority of thee time the lvt has to be cut in dry then work back from yourself so you dont kneel on it,
    Ht again try and work backwards so you dont squeeze glue through the tiles, dont glue to much out as you have to go into it wet I usually glue 1 or 2 tiles at a time pushninto glue then roll after 15 min or so,
    Ps f46 is a good adhesive I personally like mapei ps due to the grab it has,
    All 3 will work if used correctly there are a couple of threads on this probably in the trade section that explains about the heat and tile shrinkage and different glues

    Was told about the feather on a course at Floortrain, never had any issues myself with it tho.
    Get a rag guide from fball mate they have all glues in for each carpet ,job etc.
