    Irishjas, I’ve use the Homelux matting a couple of times. Take a look at this youtube video [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zL9PFRmvt4M"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zL9PFRmvt4M[/ame]
    (it’s German, but there is no talking). Use a 3mm trowel to spread your bagged addy (do not use tubbed gear). Do as the man does on the video. If you are just doing a shower area then you do not need the trim (i don’t know what it called) that spans the floor and wall. It’s just like wall papering a wall, but the beauty is that you can start tiling straight away. The corner joints are quite expensive for what they are. I normally use an off cut from the big roll. The rolls come in two different thicknesses (one for wall & one for floor). Each roll comes in either 5msq or 20msq. Good luck Sean
