Hi,
I think I have two options here but I thought I'd run it by you chaps as I may be overlooking something.
I can either sand the paint off and apply a decoupling membrane or ply-line the whole thing.
Any suggestions greatly appreciated.
Do these always need to be fitted with adhesive over timber chipboard flooring? Is it possible to just screw it down with washers. Here is what it says on the site. It's 6mm board.

Just wondering what we all use to fix plasterboard when spot fixing (dot & dabbing).
Do you prefer using tile adhesive or drywall adhesive?
I mostly use bagged cement tile adhesive as I don't like contaminating my buckets!!!

Hello. Not posted here for a couple of years. And am a bit dejected to say the least. So -
What's the general opinion regards Tanking Cement Boards when they are fitted in a bathroom containing a shower enclosure? To clarify, I'm not talking about when they are fitted in a wetroom.
Thanks, Grouch.
