Hi All, I was looking for the intro threads and got caught up with this read .I dont know a lot about the tiling and signed up for some tips .But I think the think the thing about cement/cement based material coming into contact with gypsum products is that if any moisture through steam ,wetting etc develops in the contact joint ennigmite (spelling could be wrong) causes the joint to fail .probably doesnt matter here with only the paper/rapid touching.But if there ever was a falure and some hassle afterwards wouldnt all gypsum back up be null and void .Now your all gonna say (who the **** does Corky think he is the wiseass ).

You can actually smell the difference when you use gypsum based addy.

I think that I have been very civil, so far...:yes:

Just as with cement based addy, it doesn't dry as such, it is a chemical reaction that makes it set.
Just that with gypsum addy, the reaction is that bit quicker.
