Hi Everyone,

1st time bathroom install around a bath. Current stud wall with tiles removed has had it, I'm taking out the plaster board and replacing with cement boards (already purchased).

Question: When cement boards are installed, I am going to tank it using "Aqua Seal Tanking kit". Before I do this, do i need to scrim tape and apply thin set mortar to the edges? or can I go straight to tanking installation, primer, tape, sealant? My concern is by having both it will create a raised edge on the joins and also additional work that might not be necessary!

There doesnt seem to be a clear answer on this.

Thanks

James
