Hello,
So I've searched Schluter's site and here but I can't find an answer to this question.
Big question now is: Can kerdi fix, which I'm using to adhere the top and side panels to each other for shower niches, ALSO maintain the waterproofing or will I still need to use Kerdiband at all 4 inside and outside corners?
I'm using kerdi board for walls along with their shower pan and curb with everything cut and ready to install except... I'm making my own shower niches. I have more than enough scrap material in the way of 1/2" kerdi board to make 3 separate 12"x24" niches including 'homemade' kerdi shelf dividers. The plan is to make the niches with the top and sides still connected on the facing side (think plus sign shape except it's a rectangle) and the shelves are 12x9" with the backing mitered for corners reinforced with scrap 1" foam from the shower pan.
It's driving me crazy, that and the lack of clarity over using membrane over a kerdi-fixed hole around a protruding pipe (yeah, oddball single handle horizontal to the tub spout).
