Isomat AK22Just read that Porcel-thin recommend an S1 adhesive for their tiles. I was going to use my standard adhesive- Biogel No Limits.
What do people use?

If you’re Surrey based trying Isomats products shouldn’t be a problem, they’re based in Guilford.I’m used to Biogel now. I don’t want to change
Thanks for the recommendation though. I’ve been advised to try Isomat for a little while now. It’s all about what’s local to me though. Which is mainly Tilemaster, Weber, Kerakoll.
Start from one end and finish at the other lol.Yes, Guildford is a 20 minute drive. The problem is that I don’t buy in bulk. I’ll use under ten bags per month. I tend to buy adhesive as I need it.
I think I’ll be using Biogel for these Porcel-Thin. My local supplier doesn’t stock the adhesive that they recommend, they can get it but it’ll be a ‘special’ $$$
Next question.........is there a definitive guide to mitring tiles?
Just having a little play with the Porcel-Thin tiles today.
With the mitring- I take it you don’t go too close to the edge otherwise you’ll leave a weak point?
Also, I’ve been mitring by firstly using a standard blade (Montolit GCX) to cut my mitre then taking it back with a fine blade (Montolit STL fine) and variable speed grinder and using the edge of the blade.
Do you overhang one mitre slightly more than the other or having them perfectly even?
I take it you leave a reasonable gap between the mitre and either grout or resin fill? Any tips on this? What sort of size gap are we talking?
Sorry about all the questions but it’s something I don’t do so am keen to get this right. pics below for reference. I think I need to take the mitre back quite a bit further

Haha good shout on the trowel Andy.
Although I think I’d be taking the tops off of those bolts, your knuckles won’t fair well. #jussayin!
