tiling on to bonding

[DHTiling]

ok , I'm happy to accept that I'm wrong on the Pva thing , but not sure what the objection is on Bonding ????? , especially as it's been '' closed in '' by running a wet brush over it just before it sets , and bearing in mind that the original question was about a reasonably small patch area , I recon you'd '' get away with it ''
but I have'nt joined these pages to have a row , so I'll sit back quietly and shut up and see how this develops.

Just to clarify why not to then read num 13 on this link>>>>> Tiling to Gypsum Plaster

Cheers for that Dave , must confess I really did'nt know that bonding was so bad for tiling onto , just goes to show that even after 28 years plastering experience , I can still learn a few things . ( but I've even but in my profile that I'm an Amatuer at Tiling , and do hope to pick up helpful hints and tips from the guys with the experience . )

slightly in my defence , I did know about number 14, and when plastering a bathroom that's going to be tiled , I never "polish" the plaster work and tend to run a very light brush over the surface just before it sets to give a slight Key for tile adhesive to stick to.

I hope you haven't taken offence to the comments in this thread, it's just that a lot of plasters think the same as you and go ahead and do this before the tiler has got on site then they have to deal with an unsuitable substrate and then have to convice the home owner the plasterer despite what he thought was wrong.

. Now please, please, please spread the word with the rest of your trade!!!!!!!

I'll do me best 🙂

Every day is a learning day, nobody knows it all and hence why members pointed you in the right direction... stick around and enjoy the banter etc. 🙂
