  |
|
|
I have been asked to dot and dab boards in a bathroom for a customer who is going to tile the lot.
Is there a preferred type of board?
Is normal board OK or will it suffer due to excess moisture?
 :
Cheers Steve. |

| OK, i tried changing the time on my profile. As i am almost certain the UK is GMT (Grenwich Meantime) and that is the only time zone i selected i am lost as to how it displays such crazy time. Any advice on changing it???????? |

The forum clock is nearly always wrong lol
I'm not 100% certain that you can dot and dab aquapanel.
You tile the smooth side though!

I'm in the process of building a shower cubicle, and one side will be brick!!..........I am planning on fixing 2"x1" timber to the brick work, and then screw the aquapanel to the 2"x1" !!..Is this an option in your project??

Thanks for your comments, i suppose it is but i think depth difference would be a problem, it is pretty much the whole room that needs doing and would include fitting close to a door, depth would then be a problem.
I'll have a look though.
