In respect to this, can you put tile over RedGard?When you are finished you should let the walls completely dry for a day before tiling.

I always have Redgard with me.Similarly, how long do you let Thinset dry before applying RedGard? Let this first coat of RedGard dry until the panels appear red in color. This took about 1 to 1.5 hours. Drying time depends mostly on temperature & humidity levels and the surface will appear pink until the the RedGard has completely dried. Similarly, can you tile over waterproof membrane? Contrary to popular belief, ceramic tile and grout, by themselves are not waterproof. Water can penetrate through cement-based grout and work its way through the substrate. To prevent water damage, you must install a waterproof membrane just below the tile bonding mortar as close to the tile as possible.Does RedGard stick to Hardibacker? Redgard on Hardibacker Board The trend these days is toward waterproof showers, so redgard will be better than a vapor barrier behind the cement board. Take a look at the Schluter Kerdi shower information on the Schluter site. Kerdi can be used over drywall, no cement board needed.
