tile adhesive used as plaster

Post by Simon Decorator »

Hi there,

I've already posted on general diy about trying to put together my own wet room, but one of the questions is best asked here - is it possible to use tile adhesive as a plaster i.e. something like BAL rapidset flexible fibre? - this would be used over suitably fixed and joint sealed marmox multiboards, which in turn would be fixed to a stud wall and a solid wall. As explained in other post, I'm looking to achieve a smooth uniform finish which is waterproof, hence final coats of water based epoxy coating.

cheers,

Simon

No, you won't get it smooth. Tile adhesive is too gritty and you won't be able to flatten it.
