Hello one and all.
I am about to lay 3mm hardboard in our bathroom, which has old floorboards
exposed now for about a year (I like to take my time on such jobs). This
covering is in preparation for laying vinyl floor tiles on top. The problem
is
that my wife and I are very indecisive and so it may take several months more
before we see any floor tiles we like. In the meantime I want to cover the
old
floorboards with hardboard. My only concern is what will happen to this
covering if it gets wets - I've been looking for waterproof sealant type stuff
to paint on the wood but with no success. I also don't want to make it
harder
or impossible to then fix the vinyl floor tiles (probably self adhesive
ones...)

Any suggestions or advice very appreciated.
Many thanks, Rupertb
