I don't think you needed to bother with primer when using that glue in a tube, it sticks anything to anything and for this job for you, it's fine. It wouldn't worry. Just grout it with whatever grout you have
 
If there stuck on that's it isn't it?
I'm just worried cos I only put the evo stik in the centre of the tile and worried moisture will get behind the grout into the gypsum, is this likely?
The grout i am using isnt waterproof but says suitable for kitchens and bathrooms, from unibond, is that ok? thanks

It's fine don't worry about it.

Shall I close the thread now? I assume the problem is sorted. We always close threads here once the problem is sorted and the Gypsum is fine.

one more question sorry, how would i grout this bit, would i need tile grout and caulk and if so, how long would i leave grout before applying caulk, and what type of caulk would i need? thanks
 
Yeah, here it is, says its suitable for tiles. I just squirted a little circle of it in the middle of the tile and the tiles are now stuck harder to the wall than ever. I left a 1 inch gap so that the glue would not squirt out of the sides of the tiles, as I need to grout them tomorrow.
See below, have I done the right thing?

You have to make sure when you hold that stuff, that you hold it the same as in the picture on the tube, else it sometimes doesn't work. Did you hold it right when you did it?
