apologies if this is in the wrong section.
When installing a resin/stone type shower tray, directly on a wooden floor, what do people use to keep it in place, adhesive/sealant etc.
Might add that it will be sitting on green chipboard, and I can't raise it up due to restricted headroom.

Even the low profile stone resin trays are heavy enough to not go anywhere. But i bed them in with a thick bed trowel.
Dry fit it first and check it's level because they're a bugger to pull back up if you need to add more adhesive.

It's here, blimey it's heavy, ( it's 1700x800 ).
It's not flat on the underside, it's got ridges.
Is it best to use adhesive, if so which one, remember this is going onto the green waterproof chipboard.

A flexible rapid set is what I used.

The adhesives I have are, BAL single part fast flex, and rapid set flexible from topps tiles.
Which one would be better going on to the green chipboard, I'm hoping you will say the topps tiles one, it was a lot cheaper, lol.
