Which Adhesive

[jond500]

Hi All,

I'm currently re doing my bathroom, have the tiles (500x200 Ceramic) a new pro tiles saw (Vitrex) and will be tiling onto Hardibacker, unskimmed plasterboard and skimmed plaster treated with Mapei primer.

I'm only a DIY'er but can you please recommend an adhesive for tiling onto the above, preferably Mapei from Screwfix as they are local, Topps stuff seems very very expensive and from the time I have spent on here reading and taking the advice thought I would ask

Ideally I would like an adhesive that gives me decent working time as I won't be fast but happy to prep and cut and mix smaller batches of addy. The Mapei seems much cheaper and seems to be the choice of the pro's.

I do also have a 300x300mm mosaic to fix first so need an addy for that to.

Cheers for the help.

Jon.

I'd use Mapei Adesilex P9, probably cheaper from CTD or Tile Giant. It mixes up & trowels out nice, decent grab and its got a pot life of just about all day.

All round for the walls and floor from B and Q , then use the super flex one in standard set.
