Is Schluter All Set okay to use for tiling over HydroBan
So I have been watching for so long and my project is finally getting in the home stretch. I used Kedri Board and did all the taping - used pre-made Kerdi niche, curb, and corner bench. Used inside corners and taped all seams and screws with Kerdi banding. Did two coats of Hydro Ban over all these points and then two coats over the whole shebang. I tend to over do things sometimes but I figured - hey if my patch / taping job was in anyway not spot on (which I think it came okay with plenty of overlap etc.) this extra coverage won't hurt.
Been so long I had to re-watch a lot of my saved "how to layout and tile shower" YouTubes. Saw one that mentioned having to use Non Modified thinset to tile (he was tiling over Red Guard) as the thinset wouldn't dry / cure right if it is modified since this was such a hard waterproof barrier versus the felt of membrane or some such thing. In all your videos, which are my goto - I didn't pick up on any such thing but it didn't say straight up that is should be okay either. I know you use other thinset it seems so wanted to make sure that the modified
Schluter All Set is okay as that is what is around by me from what I can find. Just don't want to mess this up now! maybe a bit nervous to final get to this point! 12x24 inch porcelain tile so just ordered the clips you had used on you YouTube doing the 12x24
Water Proofed before putting in bench. Then water proofed that too.
Thanks guys. I sure do appreciate this and all you do! Huge for a guy like me. I'm fairly capable and was raised by my father to be that way. I've had to replace plumbing, including my pump and most everything else, electrical, and carpentry. Hired out the furnace replacement. Go to know when to call the man! Most of us in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan (U.P. or Yoopers as we are called) tend to be that way. What I lack is the information and guidance folks like you who are craftsman provide. Not just to save money, but also to know what you got when it is done. Thanks for the advice on the bench Larry. I think I will do that! I'll order up the parts and the rest in my cart. Basement bathroom next but will be a lot easier after having this one under my belt. Had this room right down to the studs and tore out the ceiling as well. Liked your Youtube on wall straightening. ( sister studded everything). Heated floor with the Ditra is great for this climate. 8 degrees this morning - not too bad but that heated tile is great! The Home RenoVision DIY guy was the other huge help. His drywall and mudding/taping videos were awesome.
