As u can see on side its cement board and other is DensShield
in the corner between these 2 boards I have applied caulk ..now am confused what can I apply over this corner/caulk for waterproofing ..I dont think I can apply redgard ...so what else ?
can I apply thinset over this 100% silicone caulk ? if yes I can go to kerdi membrane route
This is what DensShield instruction say
DensShield® Tile Backer has a built-in moisture barrier. Does not require an additional moisture barrier.
2" (51 mm) fiberglass mesh tape–embed in a skim coat of material used to set tiles on all joints and corners that are to receive tile; caulk corners and edges prior to addition of fiberglass mesh tape. Seal penetrations and abutments to dissimilar materials
