I used to grout them but I read not to? Think it was impish !
The plastic is flimsy, it was a wedi one on this occasion, grout would certainly crack
Must have been some one else! Do you grout upto a plastic drain ?
He's as English as egg and chips !
Personally I don't mind which way i do it just want to do it the right way. Grouting is easier of course.
I read the trends, what to say ?.
Here in Italy, the story is different, all the walls are sand and cement, or similar.
90% of the works have crooked walls, then perfection is achieved only as said @Ste450 . I use the same +/- the same system, only add a layer of adhesive with the toothed blade, before application. Unfortunately, the advent of large formats requires me mostly the same system and also confirm that the tile is more clinging with this system, the only tiles that I saw fall from the walls were only applied with a serrated blade.
I'm not talking to pose with (dab or whatever the cazzo you say), he's talking about a draft of 80/90% of adhesive, the tile and beating with a rubber hammer.
with a thickness of 10mm limit, otherwise proceed with a shaving before installation, this system is not applicable with small sizes, with smaller sizes, proceed with shaving of the walls.
speaking of history, in the early days that I started, the tiles were applied with lime and the process is +/- the same, then? . Now what do we do? If they are not worthy to call me pro tiler, remove to me all the colored badge, is not a problem for me. I'm just more than 30 years that I do this job, no one has ever called me to tell me, the tiles are falling off the wall, it's just luck ?. maybe yes.
P.S. internal shower, should be cared much more to prevent water seepage and thin tiles with this system is NOT APPLICABLE.

How do you key the adhesive to the substrate if your just put loads of blobs on the tile?
