Making a small, rolling, outdoor cabinet. Top maybe 2'X2' and I want to tile it. Convention (from what I've read) is plywood top, thin set, screw down cement board, apply membrane then thin set and tile and finish w/grout.
I'm thinking of drawing on techniques/materials I've used with my boat. Namely, seal plywood top all round w/epoxy and then set tile in 5200 on epoxy surface. Will the 5200 stick to an epoxy surface? Dumb idea?
The top will be removable so if it's screwed up will be easy to replace. However, prefer to get it good first time
