If your doing a full bathroom with standard ceramics, then Toppfix is fine for the walls not in wet areas, where as you'd use Bal blue or white star for the wetter walls, like bath walls etc.
Stick for stick on standard ceramic tiles Toppfix is just as good as Bal bluestar and is cheaper too, so even for kitchen splashbacks toppfix is good. | | |
