An adhesive does not waterproof a substrate , even 20 yrs ago it was still the same answer.

Don't appreciate your snide comment Dave, this is a forum, not a place to belittle, as I said in my intro, I was trained 20 years ago and I am getting into it again to get acquainted to current methods and materials, I am not afraid to ask when I don't know something, don't need to made wrong for it either, aren't we supposed to help each other in these forums?

You chose the user name and then posted that question... if you are not a pro tiler then ???..

Protiler Dave is just having a bit of light hearted fun mate. We are a friendly bunch on here.

Maybe a bit of influence from some other new users recently perhaps? Timing.
I haven't caught your intro sort so welcome along protiler999

 

[AliGage]

Oh. And if the boards were good id tape and tank.

 

[DHTiling]

Yep , thomas the tank here as well 🙂

Bal grip which highly water resistant but not water proof

And highly expensive. What tiles are you planning to fix?

 

[Stef]

Tank it & tile it, job done!!
Use a cement adhesive instead of a tubbed addy,
Even if it is a D2 tub you are still better & probably cheaper with a bag,
