will tile adheasive stick to Hydro barrier I am putting tile on Purple sheetrock
739806
I used a premixed thin set on the hydro barrier I applied to the concrete Hardyboard. It sticks very well. Here is one of a series of good links on how to do it. Note this guy does not recommend glueing tiles in a wet environment. While more work, concrete board last longer. It is very important to waterproof thoroughly. When I removed the old tile/wall board I found an ant "Garden of Eden" behind it. Very important to cut off their water. http://www.youtube.com/watch?annotation_id=annotation_457202&feature=iv&src_vid=xmzEKU4YLpk&v=D1-v070N0WI

I'm not exactly sure what you mean ... You waterproof your wall & seams with the Laticrete and then you apply your thinset or whatever you choose, just as you would laying regular tile, then apply your tile. Does that help. This is very thin. It sure waterproofs well, though. :-) I agree with Mike. MUST waterproof your shower thoroughly. When I tore my shower out, I discovered they had simply used regular sheetrock with no waterproofing under the tiles. Needless to say, all my allergies and health issues were most likely directly related to the 4 -5 inch black mold creeping up the walls. I'm hoping for a better health year.

Absolutely. It is like the consistency if thick water based paint yet when dry forms a rubberized barrier that soaks in the backer board or your purple sheetrock

Hydro barrier is made to go on like paint and should work well for what you plan to do. I'm not so sure the purple wallboard is a good choice for tile backer. You should use a cement board like Durock or Hardy Backer.

I don't know mine was applied to Sheetrock I would think as long as very smooth concrete it would be fine but otherwise dunno. Try contacting the seller perhaps?

I can only assume it will. I don't have tiles in my home to test it on. They probably should be smooth tiles though.

It depends on if it is a rough surface or smooth surface. I have marble tiles in our other bathroom, and although I haven't tested it, I expect that they would stick. Now if they are "rough-hewn", I can't promise they won't stick. They will definitely stick to the side of the tub as well, so the kids can still use the blocks, they just may not be able to stick them to the walls.

We have installed tile on both the floor and the backsplash in the kitchen. On the floor there is a cement board that is placed there and then adhesieve stuff. These tiles will come off with some work with no damage to the board, but if the tile is installed directly onto the drywall like on a backsplash it will not come off without destroying the wall. If you are really carefully the damage might be at a minumum??

As long as the tile is smooth, this device will stick. I've had it up for over 6 months and it hasn't moved an inch!!

As long as the wall is smooth and clean it should stick ok. If the wall is bumpy at all, the hold won't be as good. Thank you for shopping with DGS Novelties!

I have tile 1/2 way up my wall and it attached without any problem until he tried to sit on it. :) I put a little water on the suction cups and didn't have any problems with it sticking. I just taught him not to sit on it and to let me empty it.

I'd use the primer for it before doing so, but I see no reason it can't be after that, as thats what I did. But you'd also want to "level" the joints in the existing tile before you do, so its not as simple as peel and stick if you want it right.

I'm not sure, it hasn't come off of the tiles but I never got them wet or tried to remove it

It may depend on the type of grout you have. I have one type of grout that resists everything, even the steam. The steam seems to do a good job on the other light colored grouts that I have.

We use ours against a regular tile floor that is not the "stick on kind," but it works great on the standard tile floor and does not slide. I don't know if it would damage the adhesive of your floor, but it will brace against your type of floor. The device works very well.

Sorry, I'm not familiar with sheetrock textured wall. But it will stick to flat, painted drywall. Hope that helps.

Yes. If the tile are smooth surface. It will not stick if you have very small times and the suction cups are on top of the grouts.

I think that you should contact the manufacturer and ask. The exposure to sunlight, and rain can damage tiles. If the manufacturer has done studies they can advise you of the tiles tolerances. Good luck.

Without knowing what the tile surface is like it's impossible to say. If it is textured like natural stone then I doubt the Velcro will stick to it either. If it's smooth then the suction cup will probably work.

I do not see why not, just need two solid surfaces, and would need to hold the tile until it sets. This is not a contact cement
