I have a wall that I want to cover with wet room board. The reason for using a wet room board is to minimize the risk of moisture because there will be a lot of splashing.
I have now been working on it and almost drilled through the wall. I can't get it right. I first bought a cement-based adhesive called highflex S2 DF, which was recommended by Bauhaus. But the thing refuses to cooperate.
What is an easier way to attach my boards?
The boards that are on now aren't even secured; a little nudge and they're down.

Type of adhesive PL400, 600?
Best answer
Difficult to secure a drywall panel, I think. PL600 should be the model. But if you can temporarily fix the panel with a prop against the opposite wall after gluing, I would probably try using some fischer UX plugs for the drywall screws as extra security.
PL400 takes a long time to cure, PL600 should be much more suitable for these types of applications (bonds directly).
Alternatively, I would have tried with tile adhesive or gypsum plaster.

I did the same several years ago, and then I used something the store called gipslim. There are a number of such products if you google. It's likely that gipsputs would work just as well.
The question is how you have treated the surface. Is it completely brushed clean and primed? If there is a layer of dust, it's not surprising that it doesn't stick.
