Mapei have confirmed over email and on screwfix that its fine to use to gypsom plaster as long as I seal with primer g. Bit worrying its not mentioned on the technical sheet.

Oh well just gotta wait for plaster to dry now. This one section that was a chase that has been filled in (with bonding i assume) doesn't ever appear to get any dryer, it is on the outside wall so understandable i guess but still would be good to see even a little progress

Thanks for the help above chaps, really do appreciate ur it.

You may have a small weep in the pipeworkinside the chase. Or has he plastered over the showerhead outlet?

The Mapei product I imagine used in this circumstance is Mapegum WPS

The concept of getting advice from the manufacturer has got to be good
