Review on 8” X 75 Ft EPDM Waterproofing Membrane Sheet Tape For Underlayment Tile, Shower Cement Board Protection - XFasten by Anthony Shields

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Good Stuff best in my review

What can I say, it's what I needed. It worked and it didn't break the bank. If I might suggest something, if you have never used this I have some advice. I had never used it paint on membrane, because I couldn't find it in the stores I frequent. But I decided to start. My suggestion is to not over lap tape regardless of how much of a pain it is to get the exact measurement of the seem tape. For example; you do your corners, and then you have a horizontal but joint, start your tape at the edge of the corner tape and then make your run. Reason being is you paint membrane on the joint, then apply tape, then paint membrane on over the tape. So, if your tape overlaps, you have a pretty good bulge preventing a professional looking tile job. Learn from my mistake. I was lucky and the tile that the customer chose to use was so dang odd ball and was so many different thicknesses and they wanted that look that you can't tell that the tile going over those bulges are sticking out a little.

Pros
  • good
Cons
  • May not be suitable for use in areas with high levels of vibration
