Hi, I've got to the shower tile stage! (after I tape walls).

I've now got walls, and I'm going to tile onto the Marmox boards/mapgum WPS (pics below), and reading the forums Mapei Keraflex Maxi S1 seems a good choice so I can take my time. What I'm not sure on is the https://www.tilersforums.com/forums/tile-adhesive/ mm thickness to use, the tiles are ceramic 40cmx20cm, any advice appreciated. Thanks.

Thanks Geoff... for sealing to the tray I'll be using Aquafix self https://www.tilersforums.com/forums/tile-adhesive/ tape which I bought for sealing the boards, or mapei tape that came with waterproofing kit.

I agree 8 to 10mm trowel will do it. It's a shame you have needed up with a large gap to the tray at the bottom.

It's not that big... that's where the original plasterboard came to, so just followed the lines. The tray is 'lipped', so the tiles will go over the lip covering the gap.
