Starting Lineup

Ran out of Hydroban!

I'm in the middle of redoing the tile in my downstairs tub/shower surround. The niche is framed in, the cement board is up and seams taped and coated with thinset. I then started to waterproof it with some left over Hydroban but ran out about a third of the way through. Call me a cheap skate but I don't want to pay another $100 for another gallon. I got all of the seams, screw heads and niche covered but I'll need another half a gallon or so to finish. I did notice that Laticrete sells a product called Hydro Barrier Plus that seem to be almost the same as their Hydroban but its only $48,00, I'd use Redguard but it's $75. I know, quit being a cheapskate and pay the money. But this is a tub, shower surround and I'm only doing vertical surfaces. https://www.flooranddecor.com/laticrete-installation-materials/laticrete-hydro-barrier-plus-100958206.html?impressionList=shower-systems-installation-materials
