    Default PLEASE HELP! - Tiling onto Fireboard

    Hi all,

    I am about to tile onto fireboard that will go behind an AGA. I know I need to prime the board before tiling, but some people are saying that I should not just use a normal PVA primer? also looking for some recommendations on adhesive and grout that will stand up to the heat... can anyone help???????

    Cheers in advance


    Andy
