tiling on newly plastered walls

[Don Mackenzie]

Hey guys any advice on tiling on top of recently plastered walls,i know the walls should be dry but how dry there seems to be a lot of different opinions about this,some say 3 weeks some say 3 days?

Cheers D

What tiles are you wanting to fit ?

 

[Time's Ran Out]

3 weeks.

Or as little as 3 hours if a builder has done it

I'd recommend 4 weeks and use an appropriate primer prior to installation. 2 coats of sbr primer would do. Be aware of weight restrictions with plastered walls. I wouldn't exceed 20kg/sqm.
