Adhesive for outdoors ceramic Tiles?

Any suggestion what is a good brand to use for outdoor ceramic tiles adhesive that i could get from home depot or lowes? Thanks.

Answer:

Brand name and/or where purchased is less an issue than substance. I tile every day of my life and for exterior applications I use mortars designed for exterior applications, such as those of a Poly, or Epoxy blend. Steven Wolf Just my two sense
mapei ultra flex II (Lowes) best product on the market
i believe the wiper motor is under the cowl, under where the wipers are mounted. you have to disassemble the panel, remove the wiper arms etc to access it
Home Depot carries a brand of mortar called Flexbond. If has some give to aloow for expansion and contraction. I put a 3' x 5' ceramic inlay in my deck for my grills, and it worked very well. If you are not placing the tile on concrete, you will want to use cement backer board under it. On my deck, 1/2' pressure treated plywood, 1/4 cement board, and the ceramic tile came out pretty flush with the 5/4 cedar deck boards. You will also want to use an acrylic additive in the grout instead of water. This is also available at Home Depot or a good flooring store. Hope this helps. Good luck.
