Skim cement board

[solway]

Builder has fixed cement board to bathroom walls. We're meant to be tiled floor to ceiling but now client wants to tile half way up and skim the rest. I was thinking thistlebonding-it or betokontakt first and then skim. Just wondering if thistle/beto will be OK to use on cement board?

I have found it still pulls like mad and blisters over bond-it.
SBR is better in my opinion.
