What size T spacers for metro style tiles (10cm x 20cm)

[Graham]

Hi guys, I will be doing a kitchen splashback using metro tiles.

The tiles are 10cm x 20cm in size. Should I go with 2mm spacers or 3mm spacers? Grout is Mapei Keracolor Super Fine (SF).

Thank you.

Make sure wall is flat and a nice surface and you will be fine

Great thank you, I will grab a big pack of Rubi T spacers then and get cracking. Any tips for metro tiles specifically?

Do you have a pic of area you are tiling ?

Metro tiles, 2mm spacers, Mapei Primer G (white emulsion will be scraped off first!), then Mapei adhesive and tiles.

First thing is to get work top fitted dead level. Will make life easier

Is the sink centred to the two wall units left and right ?

What do you mean by internal corner trim

Lovely diagrams

No trims required on internal corners Graham, just external - 8mm trim.
