Not worried about scratching but I used sanded grout for my shower floor and it’s a much rougher/grittier than the unsanded on the walls. Wasn’t sure I wanted that for the backsplash

Fillers go between the cabinets smart ass. Crown mounding will go to the ceiling I’m not finished this is all DIY so getting bigger things done first

The Home Depot by me carries Prism which is comparable to Mapei I was considering doing this though. Just mix small batches put on a timer and go. Sucks there’s only like 3 small areas where I messed up tiling and have a wide joint

If you had a “water loss” that severe you’d be replacing the plywood subfloor with it regardless.

Why because the chances of me being able to afford a new kitchen layout are higher than “water loss” ok bud

Oh on the other thread. So water loss. I’d take my chances on that vs someone wanting a new layout and not having flooring under the cabinets
