How long do I need to leave Keraflex Maxi before I can use my shower?

[oddjones]

I've been lurking on the forum and bought Keraflex Maxi for my shower job after all the recommendations it gets here - but I just read on the bag that a swimming pool isn't ready to be filled for 3 weeks(!) - Now I know my shower isn't a swimming pool - but how long do I have to leave it before I can use the shower?

Also, I have put plywood over (screwed down) floorboards - I plan to put durabase matting over that (I'm paranoid about leaks) and then natural slate over that - My floor is 4 square metres and my walls about 5 square metres - will I need more than the one 20kg bag of keraflex? If so, does anybody know where I can buy it near Liverpool on a Saturday ;-)

Normally it is the grout and most state 2 weeks..

Try and find a Tile Giant store local to you, Store Finder, they will be able to sort you out on a Saturday or Sunday .

I've tanked the shower using aquapanel / Mapei waterproofing kit - Am I really going to have to wait 2 weeks before I can have a shower?!!

That is the spec... we cannot advise any different from that..

Just saw this thread (how long before using a shower) - This is the grout I bought - so Here's hoping(!)

- I took the bath out to do the job - we've been without a shower or bath for a week already(!)
