[QUOTE="Pal2023, post: 988258, member: 60594"] Tiles are rough face stone effect. Depth varies from 10mm to 30mm deep. I was using a 13mm square notch (as advised by tile supplier) but have now switched to a 6mm x 10mm notched trowel (it's working out neater). Since my original post and Ben-gees advice I have made the following changes which have helped... I have switched to grey adhesve from white adhesive. So the joints and staining aren't as obvious. The grey adhesive is quick set. It's the only grey adhesive I could get. I am a mixing the adhesive a lot dryer which means very little leakage through the joints. I am rubbing any spillage off with a dry brush and then scrubbing with a damp brush when adhesive is nearly set. I am happy with the progress today. Photo attached. The top four rows have just been done. Note the damp spots where u was cleaning adhesive. The middle three rows were put on yesterday. And the bottom three were done with white adhesive and I hope to clean them with HG Product 11 tile cement grout film remover when the job is done. (product 12 is probably a better bet but not available in my local store) [/QUOTE]
