Wide Plank Pine Over Plywood Subfloor


Hello,
I am to install random width wide plank pine over a plywood subfloor. Immediately underneath the subfloor is stapled up radiant heat tube. The plan is to glue and nail the flooring down directly to the subfloor. I am looking for advive on best glue/mastic to use. Is typical subfloor adhesive good or should i use a polyeurethane variety. Any advice one mightr want to share would be appreciated.
Thanks

I use PL Premium, urethane. It will be a fight, if you full spread, the adhesive. Just a sharp serpentine, bead on the back of the plank, is all that is needed.
