I have bought the Dunlop Waterproofing Kit for my shower area (and if some is left over I may put some over bath).
My shower area is Hardibacker board on a stud wall, with a built in recess for shower gel and the like. I have a couple of questions that I hope someone can guide me on?
1) Should I use the included primer with Hardibacker or is it not required with this substrate?
2) Should I tape the joints with fibre mesh tape and tile adhesive (as stated in the Hardibacker literature), then use the Dunlop tape to go over the joints again and then tank? Or is all that is needed is the tanking tape?
3) I will be fixing travertine. Do these tanking kits have weight restrictions?
Thanks,
Daz
