I see lots of chatter of late online for Ardex's AF207.
I would like to offer up my review of this Ditra Adhesive. In a two words "It Sucks".
I came to this conclusion after testing the product. I do not think it is a great idea and other than the container (the box) Ardex 8+9 comes in the only other thing Ardex makes I dislike.
If you believe the marketing hype then have at her. If you believe the testing data I did - then leave it to the men trying to save time and money on their projects. I would never use it.
I love the rapid set logo in the .Jpeg file above. I found after weeks it was still tacky. In my test the brick stuck to the Ditra and the Ditra slide off the plywood test board. On the flip side the testing with Laticrete 254 held over 1600 pounds of water. Roughly 4 times the weight of AF207 under similar conditions.
