Most companies produce a flex rapid set that should set within 3 hours, I know weber does as I use it all the time and loads cheaper than BAL. Maybe 'no more ply' would be better than your 9mm ply as it's more rigid and only 6mm thick.

Standard single part or rapid flexi will offer no manufacturers guarantee onto 6mm cement based boards on timber. Two part is the recommended unless your boards are a minimum of 10mm thick......Gaz

Never knew that Gaz, but I wouldn't know to be honest; I've never had a job fail :) not even looked into a guarantee for adhesive. Surely if there was a problem then it would be more likely the tiler at fault than the adhesive.
