which trowel ?

[Stef]

It's not about getting better coverage... A 4 mm on that tile should get 100% ... So will a 6, but with the 4 mm, you will have a neater application. You can't get anymore than 100% even though some ppl say "I gave it 110%"... They lying!

I hate that saying, "I gave it 110%"
You can't get more than 100%,

The thicker the tiler the bigger the notch I will use Charlie.
Not saying my way is better, far from it,
If the substrate is perfectly flat then you could use the smallest trowel you have..

Exactly Stef, it's to do with size of tile and how flat wall is. Hey, I been giving it 110% at work all this week because I have been working overtime.... How does that work then lol

IMHO you will not get 100% on every tile on the sheet using a 6mm notch but if you do then its all good.
