Tanking

[tommyl18]

Can you plaster or Tile onto liquid tanking/waterproofer like Aquaprufe bitumen based says it can be used as a plaster priming agent but want second opinions

I've been trying to find out the same thing. Let us know if you find definitive proof.

as its rubber based,most if not all cement based adhsives will not bond to it.

maybe...a latex or epoxy based adhesive but again not to sure myself.

the best one.. imo to talk to would be mapei..

maybe their kerapoxy or keralastic,but give them a call first guys.

The Aquaproof is less than 10 quid for 5 litres. That's its attraction.

Google 'tanking kit' and you'll have a few options.

you have the choice of the paint on version or the wall tanking membrane.

i prefer the membrane for its a faster an easier installation.(dura/kerdi/homelux etc)..just like hanging wallpaper mate..
