hi folks
renewing my bathroom but one external wall bows into the wall by 10mm, its the length of the wall about 50/60cm wide and about 1.2mts up from the floor
don't want to do a "dot & Dab" with sheets of plasterboard, but need to level/plumb wall ready for tiling
is there anything that I can use that dry's in a few days so I can tile over the top,
been googling but keeps coming up with American stuff

Use cement board screws & rawlplugs to attach. Where the bow is, pack it with these things:
