Hello
I am new to the forum and would appreciate some expert advice.
The question is: Is there some kind of self-leveling compound that can be used ON TOP of Marmox boards.

Hi,
I'm after some advice on preparing the walls and floor of a bathroom for tiling. I want waterproof boards around the shower, and I'm currently going with Marmox. First question is on the stiffness of the Marmox boards: are 12.5mm boards really OK to go straight onto stud walls? There won't...
