## Questions & Answers

**Q: How long of a tile is this mortar recommended for?**
A: I have used it succcessfully on 18x24 porcelain shower tile.

**Q: How come Platinum White color is much more expensive than other color?**
A: I assume Portland cement is one of the main ingredients in this product.  The basic raw materials used in making Portland are naturally grey, so it is easy to make grey Laticrete.   The raw materials needed to make white Portland are much more expensive, so white Laticrete will cost more.

**Q: Will this bond to the old black residue on plywood subfloor after old laminate/vinyl tile was removed?**
A: Doubtful, but you should contact Laticrete. They have excellent customer service.

**Q: When is it necessary to use the white version instead of the cheaper grey?**
A: I used it for my swimming pool tiles. Thank you

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great product for the pool tile
*by R***I on January 13, 2026*

Work very well for the pool tile, and because of the color I did not have to worry about any grout.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great product
*by K***R on July 15, 2020*

This worked great For making a repair to the tile on my pool allowed time to place the tile before setting to fast. Would never know it was repaired, highly recommend after trying other products to repair it

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The BEST thinset for ultra-cold/ultra-wet outdoor tile situations!
*by W***5 on April 17, 2025*

Used about 10 bags of this to attach 3/4" outdoor porcelain tile to a freshly-poured concrete staircase. I had to build up a 1/2" mortar bed AND back butter and trowel another 1/2" on the back of each large-format tile to get a consistent fit and accommodate the 5 degree tilt I needed for rain runoff on the new tiles. I enjoyed an INCREDIBLY long pot life after mixing, and my project has just survived it's first cold winter without issue! I will be using this again for future projects!
