Default Tiling question

Floor tiles on a wall.
Should I use floor or wall adhesive?


It would depend. If a swimming pool you'd need a fully waterproof mortar.
If 'normal' use - like say on plasterboard - a good wall adhesive. But I
do mean a good one - cheap ones may not take the extra weight.
If you only have access to sheds, Homebase combined adhesive and grout
(white, in a white and blue tub) is as good as any - but don't use it to
grout.
