Plywood Boxing
I will be tiling a bathroom which has the boxing done in plywood I was thinking of using BAL White Star to fix the tiles would you guys recommend something else?
Also because it is on plywood what grout would you use baring in mind it will be coloured. The client has asked for Dunlop Ivory.
