    Default Best adhesive & grout to use

    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.
