The best thing to use is Durock or Wonderboard. They're about a half inch thick. There's another one that's about an eighth forget the name. They are a concrete board that is used in tile work.
15 hours is OK. If you want to go faster make sure your wood is as dry as possible. Makes a big dif.
Good luck!
