    Lots of good info. Fast forward to 3:45 for 12x12 tile and anything larger than mosaics.

    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?

    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.

    Nice vid. What trowel size do you recommend for 6×24 porcelan tile?

    • @uptokode
      @uptokode  5 лет назад

      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.

    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

      +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.
