Thanks for that Wetdec.
Both the concrete floor (5 weeks) and plaster walls (4 weeks) are new.
I was going to prime the concrete and walls with diluted APD and then put a further undiluted coat of APD on the walls, followed by a coat of WP1 on all wet area surfaces, plus taping the wall/floor joints.
Could you recommend a good BAL floor adhesive for this task given that the tiles are on the large side? I'm not a pro, and spoilt for choice with their range of products. This wet room is a separate area in a new brick built garage and will be used infrequently.
I would highly recommend this adhesive for your project....Gaz
