I did my bathroom several years ago tiling on tile. I cleaned and dried the old tiles well then used Wickes non-slip ready mixed.

BE AWARE

Tile on Tile, Things to watch for, What are the existing tiles fixed to ie Paint, plaster etc. How are they fixed ie dot and dab, is the existing tile a non porous surface therefore an adhesive with polymers wether dried or a liquid additive needs to be used.

Seriously for the way the proffesionals do it and to take some tips look at www.tileforums.com
