Ready for tiling. I dont see any ready mixed wall adhesive that can handle over 200mm size porcelain tiles. Mine are 600x300 . So I plan to use the half bag leftover of what I put under the shower tray. Is it correct? Doesnt mention porcelain.

Im not experienced in tiling at all but I got 1 quote and it was £474 for 4 tiles/6 cuts. Ridiculous - he was chancing it. Wouldn't take more than 2 hours (if that) including silicone around bottom = £232 per hour. I'll get 2 more quotes but that motivated me to do it myself. £100-125 max is what I'd pay for whole job.
I have the 3mm spacers and silicone and Ill seal the edge with plumbers gold and tidy the fabric tape.
Brought a tile cutter for £53 incase I do it myself otherwise ill return it unopened,
