I appreciate you going through the deep dive. Don't pay attention to anyone commenting on the quality of your work. You seem pretty sharp. I'm sure you see all your mistakes and maybe have ideas for how you would do it differently next time. You sharing your process was generous and may have helped me and many others from our own mistakes. Thanks!

Thanks bro. Yes, Before I created this video, I already finished 2 bathrooms. I know which part can be challenging. I think most people fail on micro because of the product (brand). The application is easy but it takes patients. Which country are you from?

Yo Jake. Yes, the kit has waterproof included. If you will do it for the first time, it takes 2 - 3 weeks. It depends on the size and surface.

Tile paste first between the tile gaps to make the surface flat and then primer before applying 1st coat of base cement.

So there is no need to put net under the cement if you are covering it over tiles?

On this product yes, no need for net. Use net when there’s a gap or unstable surface.

Hey Gabriel, thank you so much for this video. I have a genuine question. I plan to have a floating vanity counter top in the kitchen and thus most of it uses an L brackets to hold the top. My question is, 1. Should I microcement the surface first, then drill through the cement using the recommended drill bit(Glass bit) and then place the L brackets on to of the microcement layer? If so, would this method crack the microcement? 2. Should I drill through the tiles first and then place the L brackets in on top of the tiles? .then continue with the microcement journey? If so, would this crack the tile? It's a super long question and I know you arent a professional. But just wants your friendly opinion and or advice.

@GabrielDimude Жыл бұрын

Wow! That's an exciting project. Update me later 🙂 My friendly opinion since I'm not a professional Question 1. Should I drill through the tiles first and then place the L brackets on top of the tiles? .then continue with the microcement journey? If so, would this crack the tile? Answer - You can do one or the other. The important thing is to use the correct equipment (glass drill/tile drill bit). If you apply the correct steps, I think it won't crack as long as the material under is stable and secure. Question 2. Should I drill through the tiles first and then place the L brackets in on top of the tiles? .then continue with the microcement journey? If so, would this crack the tile? Answer - You can do what fits your style. My friendly opinion is it won't crack the tile as long as the base of the tile is strong and secure. If the tiles under were placed correctly and have a good base under. Then the chance of breaking will be low. Good luck and God bless
