adhesive over cinder block wall

I am looking into installing fiberglass reinforced panels in a commercial kitchen; the walls are bare cinder block = do I need to prep the block before using the adhesive for the FRP panels?

....but would bare cinder block suck up the adhesive causing the panels not to adhere?

Hasn't been a problem in my experience..it's more like a mastic/contact adhesive/Liquid Nail. Skins over pretty quick and the older stuff was bad on the eyes and nose. I think its all low VOC now..might be a little better.

I would recommend the trowel applied stuff over the caulk tube stuff.

LIQUID NAILS® Adhesive - Fiberglass Reinforced Plastic Panel Adhesive (low-VOC) (FRP-310)
