I tend to use a combination of 3 types. Large wedges 2mm, small yellow wedges 2mm with a curved base. These are quite good on an...

Hey Sajid I've just done a couple of jobs with 600x300 rectified porcelain tiles, both customers decided to have them stacked and they looked great. They were similar to what you are thinking of using. The floor tiles were a mid Grey 600x600 and I managed to align the joints to the wall tiles...
