ditra

Fermacell recommend only using a thin bed of adhesive on the 25 mm overlay, but I'm about to tile a floor with 600 x 600 tiles. Unfortunately the floor has a 10 mm bow in the middle of the floor 4.5m long. Should I use ditra, then I can increase the adhesive bed or could I self level the floor...

Customer asked today could I lay ditra onto floor boards instead of using hbb. I dont feel comfortable doing this what do you guys think is the best approach

Just wanted to see what you guys are using to fix Durabase or Ditra to a ply subtrate. Interesting for me as I have switched across to using a vinyl acrylic adhesive as it is a more economical option. It seems I am always late to the party!
