    Can a different brand grout be used with different brand adhesive?

    Hi, I'm thinking of using plasterboard > Mapei Primer G > Mapei Mapegum WPS tanking > Mapei Keraflex > Ceramic tiles (45x30x8) and then grouting with BAL Easypoxy. Would this be OK as far as the grout goes or would it react with the adhesive? Thanks!
