Dot and dab aquapanel

Lift one of them Aquapanels up and you will realise why you need mechanical fixings! :LOL: Imagine one of them falling down onto your head fully laden with tiles!

You need a mechanical fixing to lift the bleeders

hey Richard, i wonder if the new dry fix foam adhesives will grab a tile backer/aqua panel board?

have you used the stuff yet?
No not tried it yet but have looked at the data sheet; it seems to be competing as a direct alternative to drywall adhesive on plaster/insulation boards. It doesn’t specifically mention use on backer boards or give any details regarding grip strength, not that I can find anyway; it would also work out rather more expensive!

Interestingly, I was already using the D&D/screw trick on backer boards in some instances & then became aware on here a couple of years ago that others were using the same trick :LOL: . As stated they are rather a heavy beast in their own right but once loaded with tiles :confused: If I had a spare wall, it could be useful to have an experiment with it but it’s something I would prefer not to risk on a job only to have it fall off, at least with screws you know it aint going anywhere! ;)
