   Not an uncommon problem here. Are you sure those are the only loose ones? I'd tap on the ones on either side to make sure they are bonded well before I started any repairs. You may have a larger problem thta requires a larger fix. I'd grind or chip the old thinset down, clean the backs of the tiles and reset in thinset. Give them a couple of days to dry and regrout.

   Epoxy

   For a small patch I use epoxy glue and epoxy grout. 100% water proof repair.

   For a couple of tiles, in an area where the tiles are not relied on to be water-tight, if you're not too fussy you can use just about anything.  Silicone bathtub caulk would work, or any of a number of "do-all" adhesives.  Epoxy is messy, a little too stiff/brittle, and would be hardest to remove to make a more permanent fix, so I'd shy away from that.

   The "right" way, of course, would be to grind away the previous thinset and reset the tile with new thinset, of a variety intended for pool use.

   I agree with Dan, Chip out the old thinset and put it back with "ultraflex" thinset. Matching the grout will be the tricky part.

   Do you really have a pool at your house in China?

   Well, here's his email address, [email protected]

   guess he calls better leak experts than he works for.

   Or, as you suggest, might possibly be a spammer......
