I have a client who purchased his own engineered bamboo flooring. I recommended Sika t-54. The distributor, not the manufacturer, recomended mannington easy-spread adhesive even though it is not a mannington flooring. Has anyone used Mannington easy-spread adhesive before and thoughts on this product?

I have not used the Mannington but we all know that Sika is an outstanding product. I've had excellent results with it.Maybe try and steer them towards the Sika if possible.It's a proven ,quality product.

I would not use any mannington adhesive unless I was adhering a mannington product. What does the manufacturer reccommend?

I would say by my opinion, the best glue for the money out there is Tight Bond 880 something I beleive. It's a moisture barrier and glue at same time. Get it for about 90/pale. It sticks like crazy, hardly ever have any hollow spots, doesn't harden up completely even after years later. Plus it doesn't slide around like Sika does. I used to use that thinking it was the best, and it's not. Tight bond all the way. If not that then Bostik's EFA, it used to be TKO.
