On chipbaord flooring 6mm is ok to use with normal flex adhesive,however onto T&G no less than 10mm backer board will do.Most bathrooms are small enough that a 2 part flex is cheaper to use than backer board and standard flexi,labour cost for fitting boards taken into consideration.Can't really compare backerboard to ply,must only go with manufacurers recommendation hope this helps Guy
