Help!: Which trowel for shower over bath area

[pro-handyman]

Is a 'thin bed solid bed trowel' the correct choice for shower over bath area with 33x25 ceramics (It's not a power shower only mixer taps)

Thanks Ryan

8mm min i would say..

IS this the tipped trowel you have..?

It's topp's shower trowel - what do you think?

Shower Trowel Thin, Solid Bed | Topps Tiles

doesn't give a notch size but 8mm is my weapon of choice for those size tiles

[paul flight]

no mate as dave said 8mm notch . B&Q do a good one!!

[pro-handyman]

is that an 8mm square notch

[Dave]

That topps one is 6mm and mainly for splash backs.. you will need super flat walls to get proper coverage..

8mm square notch is fine and lightly back skim tiles to get a solid fix.

Just to add, a cement based adhesive would be my choice

[Phil Hobson]

I would say 8mm would be OK, if in doubt fix a couple of tiles take them off. See what kind of coverage you get

Cheers fellas very helpful as always,

Will do, it's new skim 4 weeks dry - I'm priming, tanking and then using bal single part flexible.

Thanks for that Phil. A question I should have asked myself.
