    Default Advice on fixing boarding

    Just been to look at a job and the customer has bought waterproof panels to go inside his shower it looks like ply board with a coating over it which is on both sides. He said it can be fitted with adi,its going onto a plastered wall so what would be best adi to use and best way to fit ie dot it like plasterboard or trowel on the whole area? Never put this up before so any advice welcome.Also webi board going on around the bath instead of a bath panel does this need priming and what adi is best for this?

    Sounds like Hydropanels 9mm ply with plastic coating, I always use gripfill.

    showerpanel should be fitted to walls with gripfill in a dot and dab fashion and set up a batten off a wall or something to let it go off - holes can be cut with woodworking tools and cut with a good sharp saw - have fitted it a lot -cut internal angle beads to size first to help you with sizing and roberts your mothers brother
