Default Best adhesive & grout to use
1 links from elsewhere to this Post. Click to view. permalink
Hi all,

Just wanted to double check with you guys about the best adhesive & grout to use. Customer has 600 x 300 porcelain tiles (slate effect). They are going into a shower cubicle onto plasterboard. Is BAL flexible adhesive & grout my best way forward as I'm most concerned about the weight of these tiles?

Thanks guys.
