Bal Bond SBR

[tp123]

Any idea how long after applying bal bond sbr can I start tiling ?, looked on product sheet and on can but can't find any info.
cheers.

just looking at the spec sheets and it says nothing, i would just wait till dry as with any other primers. ive never used it so dont know for sure, call bal helpline if your really unsure, but as i said if its dry go for it

Thanks for the reply

Each coat took about half hour to dry when applying to no more ply boards

But you don't need to prime nomoreply / hardibacker or any cement-based tile boards!!! It's a complete waste of time and money.

Hi TP
Odd that. I had this discussion last week with James Hardi's tech rep.

They don't advocate priming and I'm surprised nomoreply do.
As it's a product aimed at DIY market I suppose they are going for a belt and braces approach.

Guess it can't do any harm. An old pro told me "if in doubt - prime!"
(just don't use PVA!)
