grout is much coarser, their cementitious adhesives are much leaner in moisture retainers and adhesion promiters, hence the use of "latex" This is not a true latex, as the UK definition would have it. Latices are defined as being of plant origin, and polymer emulsions are synthetic. The adhesive they describe as mastic is rather like an acrylic adhesive for soft floorings. The examples I tested came Nowhere the requirements of BS 5980. The duct tape was used because the adhesive was not a non-slip type, i.e. once a tile is placed, gravity will not make it slide down the wall.
