Hi I have tanked my shower with mapei waterproofing,now I need to stick pvc panels to the ceiling.can anyone recommend something I can use please.
Are there no fixing instructions with the panels . I work with a guy who sometimes puts pva panels and he battens the ceiling and uses hidden nail technique . Have you tanked the ceiling ? If not it doesn't gave any relevance to the question if you have and you intend sticking panels then as above .

It’s an educated guess based on knowing what it will stick to in the industry after reading the data sheet before using it on waterproofing jobs, in particular when it’s been used to bond Kerdi sheet to ‘difficult’ substrates. However I’d not actually use Kerdi Fix, I’d find something else that has similar characteristics yet less expensive due to the volume of Kerdi fix required.

In reality I’d not be bonding PVC to a ceiling full stop, I’d mechanically fix them.

Been on to mapei they said speak to pvc supplier.speak to pvc supplier and they said speak to mapei lol.

I know you’re not keen on mechanically fixing the PVC but how about using a small amount of neutral curing silicone at each fixing point as it meets the membrane?

Is there a reason you’ve tanked the ceiling? My apologies if you’ve already explained.
