Sticking Pvc to tanking

Been on to mapei they said speak to pvc supplier.speak to pvc supplier and they said speak to mapei lol.

I know you’re not keen on mechanically fixing the PVC but how about using a small amount of neutral curing Silicon at each fixing point as it meets the membrane?

Is there a reason you’ve tanked the ceiling? My apologies if you’ve already explained.

Well there you go - a little bit more information - a steam room!
Gone from a simple shower to specialist installation in 1 sentence.
Wall construction, insulation, moisture breaks, temperature ranges....
 
All I want too do is stick this on the ceiling that's it. Will only be 1200mm pieces.

Sticks like sh** would be fine

that a guess @Plan Tec Tiling ? Or have you spoken to @Mapei UK Marketing or ‘sticks like S**t’ about using that product for this application?

if you are going to advise using a product which you don't know will work it would be a good idea to say so @Plan Tec Tiling.

we wouldn't want someone to take advice which turned out not to work would we

*when I say ‘we’ I’m speaking on behalf of lots of other people too 😉

W out:praying:
 
Lesson learnt by me from @Plan Tec Tiling . Test . Get some spare plaster board , tank it , stick some pvc on using different adhesives and see if any fail or work . Then you are good to go . Also please post results .
 
@Waluigi , you've been told before about personal attacks of members including staff. A simple 'disagree' would suffice, I know you know where the button is!

And yes, I've even stuck Bushboard to Mapei tanked walls and skeilings with sticks like sh** and it works! So my advice is sound. Is it what @Mapei UK Marketing would recommend, probably not. Does it work, yes. Have I done it myself, yes.

Shame I didnt receive this a few hours ago as I spent most of the day with Nick & Alan from Mapei and we had similar conversations on other applications throughout the day.
