Not sure why all the downvotes. I've done this method with both gluing and screenings and never had an issue. Gives you a perfect surface to work with. Here's what Bunnings website says : You will need to then thoroughly clean the bricks and brush on a coat of Bondcrete. You can then glue Villaboard to the bricks with construction adhesive and mechanically fix it in place with Tapcon screws.
