The best suggestion is to have a flooring pro take a quick look at what you have and tell you what to use in your particular case. Following well-intentioned advice could lead to you ruining your flooring.

When can you use mastic?
There are many different types and brands of mastic, so these are generalizations of it. Mastic is a form of tile setting material. Unlike thinset, it has a tacky quality and is meant to be used on wall tile not being put in a highmoisture area like a steam room or shower floor. Mastic should never be used with natural stone, tile larger then 8"x8" unless white clay 8"x10" or some variation of it. If you read the directions on the mastic it may say it can be used on the floor with tile up to 12 x 12. The issue is that those tile must be smooth backed. Almost no commercially sold tile is smoothed backed. There for, mastic can almost never be used on the floor. The advantage of mastic is its tacky texture. This allows the wall tile to not slide on the wall while you are installing. It is also a smooth consistency and makes it easier to spread for a novice. It is also commonly used in craft projects where tile is being put to table tops or a vase.
