    UK Help for large Tiles . .

    I have a large heavy Porcelain 1200 x 600mm Tile I want to use as a sink splashback. I've sanded the emulsion paint off to reveal the old bare plaster. I have got 'ultra trade primer' to prep the plaster. What adhesive should I use ? Will the plaster take the weight ? Many thanks in advance, Pete
