    Marmox on top of Aquapanel ?

    Hi, I've already put aquapanel onto a frame at the rear end of the bath to create a ledge/step. My question is that I need to build the height on the horizontal part by about 10mm. As i've already got some marmox lying around can I simply glue/screw this onto the aquapanel then tile??
