Could i not just use normal plugs and screws with metal washers (stainless steel obviously)
where can you get the plastic washers etc.?

I have used the marmox plastic washers before on marmox board but they seem to still sit of the board a good 2/3mm once fixed, was i doing it wrong.?

The aquapanel thermal screws and washers are much better on marmox and wedi boards. don't know if the little reccessed bit in the middle of the washer will pull into hardibacker though.
