Hi
For cement boards in the shower area I use the cement board jointing tape.
For moisture plasterboards in the rest of the bathroom area, do you use the same plasterboard fibreglass jointing tape that you would use in bedrooms etc.
The moisture plasterboards are being tiled after.
Thanks

I'm a little confused about how to apply the tanking tape!
1. if both sides of the tape are to be behind tiles, ie in a vertical corner, do I still need to remove the scrim from the edge?
2. should the tape be applied scrim side to the wall, or rubber side to the wall?
3. do I need to peel...

Have just got some branded Aquapanel tape for the joins and it looks very similar to the normal plasterboard join tape I've got lying around. Is it the same, or is it important to use the Aquapanel stuff?
Thanks.
I have purchased a Mapei shower waterproofing kit and noticed that the tape doesn't have sticky tape on the reverse side. Is it just held in place with the Mapegum?
Thanks in advance of your replies.

Not sure if I have used enough Silicon on this job. Or if I should have splashed out on Cornertape.
I am just worried there doesnt appear to be enough Silicon to hold the joint
I suppose using so little means its not noticable that there is a Silicon bead :lol:
anyone got any ideas how to remove masking tape residue from an acrylic bath, some one told me WD40 but dont know how true that is, also anyone recommend any other tape other than masking tape, anyone used frog tape ?
Evening,
Does anybody know anywhere you can buy the tanking tape in central Scotland, I need it in the next couple of days?
I only need the tape.
Cheers

I need some of the sticky tape that you stick the heating cable to the floor with. it looks like duct tape but is only about 19mm wide.
Does anyone know where you can get it from? I need enough to do 450 linear meters.
:thumbsup:
