Only prime plaster you can plasterboard but don't need to its a chemical reaction with plaster and cement if you use bucket adhesive some you don't need to prime but we wouldn't recommend ready mix adhesive even for your mumthanks pjc, why do you prime anyway?? is it something to do with the adhesive losing its moisture into the wall surface to quick or something like that?
3/8 ply isn't thick enough IMO you have to screw the chipboard to the joists then seal the ply underneath and edges with say sbr screw the ply down 300 centres then use a single part rapid flex adhesivethe floor will be chipboard, with a layer of 3/8 ply covering it nailed every 100mm unless you lads suggest otherwise
and going back to the primer?? 2 opinions on here, which is the correct one?
cheers
Good on the floor but I would use standard flexi on the walls will give you more timewas going to use a raped set flex adhesive, not ready mix, as the tiles will likely be the large variety
Lol should of done it the other way roundarrgghhh, im flappin now? the 3/8 ply that i was going to overboard the floorboards with isnt thick enough?
what about the half inch ply on the stud walls overboarded by 3/8 plastedr board?
