Tile Trowels: Choosing The Right Size
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 28 июн 2024
- If you are new to tile setting this video can help you pick the right tile trowel size. In my attempt to describe what size of trowel to use depending on your tile application I actually run through a lot of tile basics and terminology that are very useful when starting a tile project, like mortar vs. grout!

Lots of good info. Fast forward to 3:45 for 12x12 tile and anything larger than mosaics.
Thanks a lot. Great job man
Great video!
Looking for a video that just goes through a bunch if tile types & recommended trowel for that tile. Real fast.
thanks for sharing
I fell asleep, what did he say about 12 x 24 inch wall tile
Great explanation. I am excited to do my own bathroom remodel. Thanks.
Thank you!
You’re welcome! Thanks for watching
Who needs sleeping medication when you can just watch this guy?
I lasted 15 seconds before shut this guy down. Yawn....!
Nice vid. What trowel size do you recommend for 6×24 porcelan tile?
Probably a 3/8 x 3/8 x 3/8. That will allow some wiggle room for adjustment. If you find the mortar squishing out too much then go to a 1/4 x 1/4 x 3/8 deep trowel.
i am laying a 12x12 mosaic stone 4mm thick tile, so i would use a V-notch 3/8x3/8 or what size should use?
Elliotp 1/4x1/4 or vnotch 3/16x1/4
So if I am setting say 3x6 subway that has almost no grout line the 1/4 inch saw tooth is going to be the best choice?
Do you mean 1/4" notched trowel? I would use either a v-notch trowel (3/16" or so) or a kerdi towel. Kerdi is a brand name used by schluter. If you find your mastic or mortar is coming through the grout lines too much then go with a smaller trowel. General rule is smaller tile =smaller trowel.
Kody Horvey Thanks man.
it's called a rubber float
What trowel size to use for 4x12 in shower thank you
Welcome to Canada boys and girls.
Spiii spit it out bro..
lollll you're funny you was scary (at 5:30 min of the video) to put tile on counter but (at 6:47 min of the video) you pull the bag of mortar by sliding on counter
hahahahha this guy using the most crapy leveling system
this is painful
Rob Weaver Make it past 2 minutes= GOD MODE.
Just get to the point man.
+Rob Weaver - no it's not. Be grateful. I'm not even a tiler, but I needed to know what the different spreader tool dimensions were and when to use them and he explained that perfectly.
I had a stroke...
I learned absolutely nothing.
