Should I use green board in bath?

| Posted in General Discussion on

*
There seem to be a lot of opinions on this, but
what the hell. I’m installing drywall over foam
sheets in a bathroom. Have fiberglass insul. with kraft backing in
ceiling. Should I combine 6 mil. plastic with
conventional drywall or use the green board? Or skip
the plastic and use the green board alone?
