Mapei Keraquick - is this ok for plasterboard?
I have three different types of wall that I need to tile. One is a bog standard plastered wall. The second is a cement based board (aquapanel) and the third is just good old plasterboard. I want to keep things simple and use Mapei keraquick to fix tiles to all of these walls but I am not sure if I can do this with the plasterboard wall? Also, its not clear what the preparation is for the cement based board?
So my questions are:
1. Can I use keraquick for all three wall types?
2. Is it primer G for preparation on all these surfaces?

Re: Mapei Keraquick - is this ok for plasterboard?
Gents,
Thanks for your help.
The tiles (the the first of two jobs in the same room) are cut down floor tiles to be used as a skirting board around low part of the walls. These cut-down tiles measure 300mm x 100mm and are 9mm thick.
For the second job tiling in the shower area the tiles are 250mm x 400mm and are 8mm thick. Fortunately the shower area does not have and plasterboard wall (two plaster and one cement board wall).
