150 x 75 adhesive and grout - Tile Advice

[Saphiretiler]

hi all,

Just a quick question, what adhesive would you use if you was tiling with 150x75 on new plasterboard walls. Starting 2m and working down so needs a very good grap. Also grout needs to be light/silver grey what would you use.
All help would be great.

And get a free grouting bucket!

As said by @Albert, BAL white star ready mixed adhesive will give good instant grip and no slip. BAL, Mapei, Ardex all have silver grey grouts and matching silicones and should be available at your nearest tile shops.

I remember when I never had to buy buckets always had plenty .

I remember when you had to keep your buckets to refill with adhesive because we were on a 3 day week. Ted Heath upset the unions and they were on strike - 1973/4! Before that it was a wheelbarrow jobbie.
