    Ply - Priming Back

    I'm replacing the floor in my bathroom with 18mm ply and then over boarding with 6mm HBB. I seem to remember that it's advised to prime the back and edges of ply before it's screwed down. Is it necessary? I'd don't really understand what this would be achieving.

    Whats everyone using to stick down Ditra or durabase onto Ply subtrate

    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!
