Going to CTD later, advice on adhesive

[jrm]

Hi guys,

I'm passing by a CTD later this afternoon on so i'm going to pick up some bits while I have the opportunity as I don't live local to a branch.

I'm going to get the Homelux matting as they are much cheaper than Topps but I need a primer and adhesive.

I've read through many posts on here but i'm still unsure of what to go for, I know I should be using a powdered flexible adhesive but which brand?

I would like to use the same adhesive for my tiles and would prefer a non rapid set type. What about primers, is there a specific one for bare plasterboard, should I buy the adhesive and primer from the same manufacturer?

Thanks for the help

I use bal apd or sbr, I would ask at your local supplier what they reccomend, It's whats available in your area

Thanks, I picked up some Bal single part flexible in white and Bal APD primer.

I was tempted to go for the ready mixed Bal whitestar but i'm sure I read somewhere that ready mixed isn't recommended for the waterproof matting.
