600 X 600 mm Tile Spacers

[theandroids]

Hi, yes I know the title sounds off Doh! lol Well to all you guys that have installed large format 600 x 600 mm tiles, what size spacers or level system do you use. Personally I want the smallest grout line possible, which I'm told is 2mm by 'Tile Mountain' for their Lounge Light Grey tiles, but I think I've seen guys on youtube not even using any. Any advise is much appreciated.

2 to 3 mm. If it's a diy job, I'd go for the 3mm as it will be slightly more forgiving

I never do a floor less 3mm as that is the minimum recommended joint by British standards .

As above should be 3mm. It depends how big the floor is and how good the
tiles are for size

 

[Blunt Tool]

My preference is 3mm

Personally with that size of tile I'd go with 4 or 5 mm.

Always 3mm for me.

 

[GoneGuy]

Always minimum of 3mm on the floor

Ok thanks for all the replies guys.

2mm for me on a quality tile (British standards seem to be outdated in many areas) 3mm on a not so good tile.
