Jill Hogan: Was your lime render under tile 100% lime? Or did you have
any sand in it? 

Thanks...

>> Hello everyone! I have a subfloor made of cob and want to lay tiles over it. Does anyone have an experience on the matter? The first thing I thought I will pour some concrete sublayer over existing cobfloor, to leveling and straighten it. But then I've read Ziggi's ( theyearofmud.com) post on how he tiled his earthen floor using clay as adhesive. And I thought, maybe that is the way? What do yoy guys think? Basically, will it stay in place? :) Also plan to ask Ziggi.
