A Tad is a tiny bit more than a smidge.

I'd say about [emoji113]. [emoji113] this much , maybe just a tad over [emoji106]

Thanks for that helpfull reply Craig, when we run out you can go the tile shop and get some more while I stay n keep my meterage up..perhaps you might stay a 'tad' later than 3 oclock a couple of days eh

I wouldn't use an 8mm on that size tile, 10mm minimum, try your 8, pop the tile and see what the coverage is like, so often the tiles are bowed so you'll get no to next to no coverage on anything but the edges.

That's a coincidence, I'm just doing a bathroom with 600x300 porc and an 8mm trowel n back skimming tiles, got there yesterday and had to take 2 off id stuck on the day before due to pipes in wrong place and they wouldnt come off for love nor money, had to replace the plasterboard as they ripped it off the drywall..

Fair enough, I was just making a point about bowed tiles from experience, out of interest, what was the contact like on the back of the tile ?

 

[Spare Tool]

Experienced badly bowed tiles also, funnily enough they seem to be the more expensive ones like V&B. I can't tell you what the coverage on the tile was like as the plasterboards seriously wouldn't come off them..

I usually price at 5m2 per bag on good walls, if a company's buying in the adhesive then it's 3m2 per bag. [emoji6]
Best coverage I've ever had out of bags is on top of an anhydrite screed, 10mm trowel every tile back buttered, 80m2, done it with 10 bags of AnhyFix.

I thought we had to guess how many M&M's were in a bag. I must read the posts properly.

Later than 3 [emoji33] bloody overtime that, triple time as well [emoji41]

A Tad is a tiny bit more than a smidge.

And a WAF is a bit less than a smidge

 

[Unused Account 1]

10 mm trowel on 600 x 300 really ,got to butter the backs to get full or better coverage

 

[Flintstone]

I always estimate at 4m2 per bag using tile master, unless there 60x60 tiles then probably 3m.

Spot bed them. You'll get a lot more out of a bag that way and if you have to take any off they'll be easier to remove
