What size T spacers for metro style tiles (10cm x 20cm)
Tilers Forums Official Sponsors
Morning all, I have some progress pics and some questions.
First of, I think the finish is ok, but what you see below took me the whole of Sat to do. The tiling wall is reasonably straight too, but it just seems to be taking ages. 🙁
I started about 9am. First, Mapei Primer G on the wall, diluted 1:1 (it's old plaster, wall was painted, scraped the paint off, water based paint).
After several coats of Primer G, and about an hour of dry time, I mixed some Keraflex Maxi up and set about tiling the metros.
The image below shows the left corner. I chickened out in the end and used the internal corner trim I bought even though I didn't think I'd need to in the beginning. Because the metro tiles have a bevel around the perimeter, they look a bit weird when cut in half and butted up next to each other.
My question at this point is what do I fill the gaps below with - trim? This is just below the wall units.

Don't mind me while I bump up some older but good threads. If you can contribute to the thread, go ahead. But if it's nothing for you then don't reply and it'll soon drop off the What's New page etc.
