IS THIS THE LEFT HANDED VERSION GAZ ??????:grin:
 
I agree with you guy's Bal mosaic fix takes some beating.....I have used it to fix a large mural made from glass mosaics fixed with this on to a rendered wall to the exterior of a school. It's been out there for @ 5 years now and has never flackered...........mosaic thin bed trowel should be used :thumbsup:
 
3-4mm trowel maximum and use decent adhesive like the guys suggest. Never, ever use fix and grout adhesive. Its pants!!
 
after doing all of the above,try pinning the mosaic in position using panel pins and remove when set,use a mosaic fix adhesive and trowel.
