Default Tiling onto Aquadec

Just been asked to finish a wetroom , the floor hasnt been started yet but it has Tilesafe membrane laid and an Aquadec shower tray. Never tiled over the Aquadec so what adhesive is reccomended.
All the tanking seems to have been done right but it seems as they have lost confidence with the tiler. Nothing to do with quality ( although i saw a few errors IMO) more to do with his time keeping.

Interesting as i had a reply from Impey today....
Thank you for your email. The adhesive to be used on the Tilesafe membrane should be a flexible two part
cement based adhesive, not a ready mix. Do not use polyurethane or epoxy-based adhesive or grout.

However, always refer to adhesive manufacturers recommendations before use.

Sorry about this Sir Ramic - it's all very confusing and I can't understand why you were given that information - here is a section from page 9 of the instructions we issue with the Tilesafe membrane regarding adhesives....(this can be seen in the downloads section of the Impey-Showers website).

"DO NOT use solvent based floor tile adhesives or epoxy or polyurethane based adhesives. It is
recommended that a single part cement based flexible floor tile adhesive is used (NOT ready
mixed)"
