I have a wooden floor overboarded with a No More Ply, then cable ufh, then self levelling compound. I want to install Ditra matting and finally tiles. Questions are:
1) What adhesive should I use to secure the ditra over the slc?
2) What adhesive to use over the ditra when laying either Travertine or marble tiles?

I have checked a few sites and it looks like Bal Rapaid Set Flex is suitbale over ufh (without an additive) but have also seen both Mapei Keraflex and Mapeker Rapid Set flex may also be suitable in this situation. These are currently the only two brands I have looked at but willing to explore others. For fixing the tiles I was looking at Bal Natural Stone.

Am I on the right track? What would others suggest in order to get a lower cost quality adhesive?

Regards,
Corey
