Can you get waterproof plaster ? Why not use cement like they used to ? I guess plasterboard adhesive would be even stickier, and is not much more expensive. It's not at all flexible though, so no good on wooden floors, wobbly walls etc. Simon. |

Some very knowledgeable & qualified people spend years carefully formulating a product like tile adhesive & testing it. If drywall adhesive was suitable they would sell it. -- Dave The Medway Handyman www.medwayhandyman.co.uk 01634 717930 07850 597257 |
