The 'web' seems to recommend 4mm notched trowel for mosaics (porcelain)
Is this correct and if so is the notch smaller than you would use on the floor to stop adhesive coming through the gaps?
Many thanks for your help

Hi all, fairly obvious post as the title suggests. I'm beating myself up as 10mm would obviously provide more insulation (laid on solid chipboard floor in bathroom) but how much difference? Would really prefer to go with 6mm due to the step down to the landing carpet.
i can't seem to find any...
