Hi guys,
I am about to tile my shower and have a question.
I have fitted mositure resistant plasterboards and I have brought "unibond tile on walls" to stick the tiles.
The packet says I should prime the walls using a mix of 1 part PVA to 5 parts water, but I read many sites like the one linked below saying that using PVA is bad as it can reactivate if it gets wet and the tiles can fall off.

Should I just follow the manufacturers advice?
Can I use another primer like a BAL primer with unibond tile adhesive?
Not sure what to do, people seem to have different opinions :S.
Thanks in advance
