OK here's what we got
looking at tile or vinyl for the bathroom. current floor is vinyl on some type of wood floor.
home depot says take the gloss off the vinyl, then mastic, then backerboard, then mastic then tile
lowe's guy says for vinyl, put down skin coat to fill lines in the vinyl, then put town self adhering vinyl.
lowe's guy also says for tile, put down a membrance to cover the vinyl, then mastic, then tile. membrane is moisture barrier and fills in lines in the vinyl
any comments? Thanks all
