Floor Tiling

SaverRate

I am looking to tile over my existing floor tiles. Having had a look online as long as the existing floor is relatively flat is should be fine. 

Can anyone recommend a suitable floor tile adhesive for tiling on top of tiles including building up to 1cm to allow for a current difference in floor levels? 

Please don’t tell me not to tile on top of tiles, I just want to know if there is a suitable floor tile adhesive as above! 

Thanks for your help in advance!

If you need to build up by that much is it not worth looking into whether you can lay some kind of backer board on top of the existing floor? I’m personally not sure if this is recommended in terms of securing (somehow) over tile- just might be worth researching this as an option. 

Then you can just use normal adhesive

Is that 10mm including the tiles and adhesive, or in addition ?

Depending on the size of tile, you may well find adhesive+tile is 15mm (at least with large format tiles). If this 10mm increase is in addition to tiles, then self leveling compound (assuming concrete base) will do the job.
