Re: What adhesive for vinyl over gloss tiles?

Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community @arnie7. It's great to have you join us, and many thanks for your question about installing vinyl planks.

To give you the best advice, could you please identify the specific vinyl planks you're planning to use? The manufacturer of the vinyl planks should have guidelines on whether they are suitable for installation directly over tile and if so, whether they need to be glued. Some vinyl planks are designed for over-tile applications with no adhesive required, while others may require a different approach, such as prepping the surface with a primer or adhesive specifically designed for tile installation. Once you have that information, it will be easier to recommend the correct adhesive for your project.

Please let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks so much for your comprehensive response, Mitchell. These are Karndean Opus, not interlocking. I am trying to glean info from supplier. Very grateful to you.

Best wishes
