    Default what is best and easiest tanking membrane to use over ply deck in shower

    I have been tanking showers with mira 4180 /fleece/multicoat or similar products for years with no problem.
    But now keep coming up against aquadec tilesafe membrane being specified on projects.
    it takes so much longer to tank shower /non user friendly and is very expensive.
    does it really do such a better job or is it just good marketing.
    Cant stand using the stuff
    which tanking product is deemed to be best and most cost effective on market now.
    very interested in any new products that are easy to use and work well.

    As Dave for me, Dural WP is good stuff. Got a steam room to tank in the next couple of weeks, will be using WP.

    When you say only good for floors Dave, do you mean that it is not guaranteed for use on walls?
