Default Stainless steel sheet onto tiles

Looking for the best adhesive to put a 1.2sqM stainless steel sheet onto
tiles It is a bit ackward to get into place so would need a few minutes to
play with the position,
My thoughts were silicon, would leave plenty of time to move but may come
away from the tiles or Grab type adhesives, would they leave enough time to
move the sheet around?

any thoughts gratefully recieved!

No (more) nails or the like. That's what we use in industrial kitchens
to hold 8' x 4' sheets of 1mm stainless to the wall, not had a problem
with it. The grip types, pinkgrip etc. never worked well for us
because of the large areas involved and the grip going off before all
the adhesive was applied but you might be ok

Also as TNP says, car body filler can also work surprisingly well on
smaller areas like you are doing. make sure you scuff the stuck side
of the SS sheet to get best adhesion.
