Bathroom Remodel Pt.3 Laying Floor Tile

What happens here

Despite sweeping, fine dust often remains on the subfloor. Use a vacuum cleaner (like a RIDGID shop vac) to remove all dust and debris from the plywood subfloor. A clean surface is essential for strong adhesion of the thinset mortar.

Goal: Thoroughly clean the subfloor to ensure proper adhesion of the thinset mortar.

What they say

Hide

lay down and then we can press this on uh but before we get started here's one thing we need to do though we have swept everything there's still some dust here so what i'm gonna do is uh i'm gonna go grab my vacuum make sure everything's up just because it'll be a lot easier to have a good adhesion or adhesiveness whatever you know i suck at that word uh to lay it all down
