I bet you have a waterproofed wall or summat.

blockwork, dot-n-dab, 12.5mm standard plasterboard, skimmed, left a
couple of weeks, sealed with Ultra Tile Prime IT FP (NOT PVA!), then
tiled a few days afterwards (primer dries in an hour)


see you got suckered as well. Why seal?

Trade doesn't and I dont. My tiles stay up!

I always PVA and my tiles stay up perfectly using Wickes bog standard ready
mix tile goo. Ready to grout next day.
