I used this mortar for the grout between the tiles, which I’m sure was exactly the wrong way to do it, but I did it anyway and it worked. Please allow me to reiterate: these are RUSTIC mosaics. (Of course we all know the word “rustic” in craft-speak means “it’s an absolute mess but I love it anyway.”) So having no idea where to begin, I used lock-tight glue (not this mortar) to attach the tiles to the bricks, let it dry a few days, then unused this mortar to fill in between the cracks. My first attempt, I used plastic gloves and it was…. unspeakable. For the next attempt I did myself a favor and got an old plastic knife and used that instead of my fingers to smear mortar in the cracks. Much easier, I wasted less mortar, and it was less messy. A wet sponge worked for cleaning the excess mortar off the tiles. Success! Still rustic, mind you. This stuff is strong but gloppy and I can’t imagine that it will ever be smooth and professional looking, at least in the capacity I’m trying to use it in. You’d probably have to get real grout (and be much better at this than I am) for smooth perfection. When I used the wet sponge to clean up the tiles, I was able to use my wet finger to smooth it out a little but not much. It’s perfect for my purposes because none of my diy stuff ever turns out professional and perfect looking. If these mosaics were perfect, they’d certainly look out of place with all my other misfit projects. So anyway, I did four bricks so far, as shown in the pictures. I did only the tops and one front face each (not the whole brick). And so far I have used less than half the container. So it goes pretty far. As far as strength, it is absolutely hard as a rock. I got a few globs on my work surface that dried before I could wipe them off. And they are stuck. Hard. I’m going to have to chisel them off with a screwdriver and hammer or something because otherwise they are not going anywhere. I take this to mean my bricks are just as sturdy. I am giving this 5 stars because it has worked perfectly for what I wanted and this rustic look is what is was going for. If you’re looking for smooth perfection, you will probably find this mortar frustrating at best. But I love it and will be getting more when it runs out. Review: Perfect for small jobs. - Great stuff. Perfect for small jobs that don't require a bag of unmixed. I used it to replace 3 12x12 tiles that were cracked. Sets in about an hour and is dried and ready to grout by next day. Wasn't too hard or soft and spreads easily. I used nearly the entire quart bucket so it covers about 4 sq ft comfortably. No cracks and tiles are adhered firmly in place. ## Features - A no-mix, no-mess alternative to traditional thin-set mortars spreads quickly and easily. - Recommended to bond porcelain, stone, marble, granite and ceramic or porcelain tile up to 8" x 8". - Can be used with tile with one side up to 15", but dry time significantly increases. - For interior wall and floor installations. - Use white SimpleSet when installing lighter-color stone and tile. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Brand | CUSTOM | | Color | Gray | | Item Form | Liquid | | Item Package Quantity | 1 | | Material | ceramic | | Material Type | ceramic | | Other Special Features of the Product | Pre-Mixed, Versatile, Water Resistant, Multi-Surface | | Special Feature | Pre-Mixed, Versatile, Water Resistant, Multi-Surface | | Specific Uses For Product | Tile Repair, Flooring, Masonry | | Volume | 946 ml | ## Product Details - **Brand:** CUSTOM - **Item Form:** Liquid - **Material:** ceramic - **Special Feature:** Pre-Mixed, Versatile, Water Resistant, Multi-Surface - **Specific Uses For Product:** Tile Repair, Flooring, Masonry ## Images ![BLDG Products SimpleSet Pre-Mixed Thin-Set Mortar 1 QT - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61z9j00Ae7L.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: does this work for glass wall tile?** A: Works well for granite and ceramic tile but i am not certain about glass tile i would suppose it works with glass as well **Q: Can this be used as a grout as well? Looking to do some outdoor mosaic work with tiles** A: Answered another question regarding this and ...funny you should ask! I have been using this to do mosaic/embelishments on my brick house. Have gone through several tubs of the stuff and really like the convenience of it. I've used it to adhere old silverplate, a horseshoe...large China pieces and recently, a decorative clay tile. My first was done last year and I carefully used mortar over the thin set, then sprayed with a mortar sealer. So far, it has lasted through one Ohio winter! **Q: Can this be used on shower floor?** A: No. This product is not recommended for areas with standing water. This product is not really mortar, it's mastic with sand added. You need real mortar for a shower floor, which does not come pre-mixed. **Q: Is this good for tuckpointing an old brick chimney?** A: I wouldn't. Brick mortar is cheap and would work much better. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Worked well for beginner rustic mosaic bricks *by A***N on May 12, 2023* Let me start by saying this is my first time making mosaic bricks/stones.

Keep in mind this is a small premixed amount of motor, it was perfect for what I needed, to replace one large tile in the kitchen. ## Frequently Bought Together - CUSTOM BLDG PRODUCTS SimpleSet Pre-Mixed Thin-Set Mortar 1 QT - QEP 1/4 in. x 1/4 in. x 1/4 in.
