We have the 5 weekend's working on it, stripping it back to the studs and concrete slab treating and replacing top plate and studs from termite damage., sheeting the walls and ceiling. I was planning to tile floor to ceiling in the main bathroom and just do a 300mm skirting in the WC so i waterproofes floor and 230mm around the perimeter of the walls. Problem arises when tiling the wc I ended 1 tile short for the skirting. So made the call to use half tiles and just do a 150mm skirt which im glad i did it looks much better i think but now i have a problem I've got 80mm of waterproofing membrane exposed above the tiles and its gonna be problematic to get a nice finish when painting Is there a way to strip it off, im using Aquablok wpu on villaboard. She gets back tomorrow at midday ao i have 36hrs to work with and it being a public holiday my options are limited. Any help is much appreciated Short of the everything come up exactly how i wanted it it would be shame to not get the finish i want due to a rough 80mm strip of pain Re: Bathroom renovation - paint and waterproofing 2Apr 15, 2017 8:19 pm Maybe a quick skim of base coat plaster and a top coat to finish should cover it.

Since it is only a small space, there really isn't much that you can do. Hopefully you had managed to keep that surprise a success for her return!
