Hi,

Could anyone suggest a good material for use to seal the floor before laying tile in a subway car? We have tried different types of cement with no luck.

Thank you,

Freddie

So, what material is the sub floor and what is its condition? And what kind of tile are you planning to lay over the top? Is a 'sealer' necessary? If the base is sound you should be able to use a good mastic to set down the tile.
