Well you l'il h UH - Well, isn't that GREAT, LIL: I think it'll work, and that's as pretty as can be, and it'll definitely show up in your garden. You go, girlie. I'm gonna do the same thing cuz ROSIE gave me a whole bunch of tiles I'm saving for the same treatment.

Should I keep it inside for any amount of time to cure? It has rained all week and doesn't look like it's going to quit. I've not ever done anything for outside.

I put mine outside immediately. Hope the grout you used wasn't the pre-mixed stuff for inside work. If it is regular sanded grout, it should be ok. You KNOW my favorite "grout" for outside stuff is the cement-based mortar. It's tough.

No, I used that mapei ultraflex 2. For those who need/want info on it:
DESCRIPTION
Ultraflex 2 is a professional-grade, single-component, high-performance, polymer-modified thin-set mortar for interior and exterior installations of dimensional stone, ceramic, porcelain and quarry tile. This mortar has a high content of a unique dry polymer, resulting in excellent adhesion to the substrate and tile. Ultraflex 2 can be used for most interior and exterior residential floor and wall tile applications. In commercial applications, use on interior floor and wall installations and exterior floors.

The below I need to keep in mind for something I want to do soon. I want to get a large clay saucer and make a bird bath and I will need the below info:
Do not use for installations subject to prolonged water immersion (swimming pools, gang showers, hot tubs,fountains, etc.). Instead, use KeracreteÂ, Keralastic or Granirapid.

Ok, I know I shouldn't ask, but what the heck is a GANG shower??

What a nifty idea Lilym!!

Thanks for the info, too

Maria

I bow - as deeply as this ancient body w/allow - thank you, LIL for describing the Mapei UltraFlex 2. It's what I've used, for the last two yrs., expounded on it's qualities and it's what I'll use until the Lord calls me Home.

bama, a gang shower is an open shower, not private.
