Maybe you've heard of 5 mil vapour barrier or mils used as a rating for strength & thickness in garbage bags. 30 mils is about 3/4mm.

The various Schluter membranes are all great products, the only drawback is the exorbitant price you pay for the stuff.

It's actually well priced.

I can get you a 32x60 shower Kit for 500 bucks.
Add in hardie board to 5' AFF 5 sheets@23.00 =115.00
317 Non Modified thinset for walls and kerdi membrane 2 bags =34.95
Thinset for walls and floor 253 Gold modified 3 bags =64.00
Add tiles and go!
I can do Kerdi for 1.68/sqft if you take the 300sqft roll, or 2.25 on your actual square footage
Schluter Ditra, I would have to look at the pricing as I have CRS right now!
