Hey fellow tilers,

Quite new to tiling, done a course and done several jobs with success, however I have a job at the moment and the customer has 30x50cm ceramics, to go on to plasterboard.
Just wondering if anyone has advice on a particular adhesive I should use, I know it will be powder based but not sure what exact one to go for.
The customer has large granite sparkly floor tiles to be installed also, talk about in at the deep end!

Thanks

Mapei Kera flex maxi would be a good choice..

Thanks dave

would this be ok to use in a bathroom?

Cheers

Of course..it is an S1 cement based adhesive

Dave has the OP checked his weight per meter 30x50 is gotta get up to the limit surely? and he did say he was new to tiling!

What do you mean the tiles might be too heavy?

Yeh they're not heavy at all to lift, i'm not worried at all lol

Just done my shower room in 60x 60 glazed porcelain straight onto plasterboard with nanolite no problems

ok, ok, ok, for some reason i read it as plastered wall! SORRY think i got it mixed up with another thread

Im a fan of Mapei Kerraquick mate, great grip and rapid setting! If you are slow at tiling or prefer to mix less frequantly then as Dave said Keraflex Maxi would be a good choice as it has a pot life of up to 8 hours so you could mix it in the morning and it would still be usable in the afternoon.
