    Fitting a Tilux former - good tip that worked for me

    Leave about 15 to 20mm clearence around the former when bedding down. This enables you to twist/move the former slightly to help bed it in. Having it tight to the wall/screed rather limits your options. This gap can be backfilled with adhesive or screed.
