I'm putting in a bathtub and want to do tile up to the shower head and paint above that. Right now I have CB board up to the ceiling with the joints filled with alkali resistant mesh and thinset. I plan to redgard (no vapor barrier behind CB), do I redgard up to where the tile will stop or go all the way up to the ceiling? Do I use drywall mud above the tile so I can paint? Will drywall mud stick to redgard or the CB? Is drywall mud the right stuff to use to smooth out the surface for paint?
