Hi. Im about to lay some 10cmx30cm marble in my wetroom / bathroom floor.


Im struggling to find which trowel to use. after hours of googleing I think i need to end up with a "soild bed" and back butter the tiles. But im unsure of what trowel to use, square, V, U ect 6-8mm??

The floor is very flat.


Im also looking for a adhesive that does both the floor and wall. Both are grey marble and the wall tiles are 30x47s.

As it is wet room and you want as close to 100% coverage a possible, given your tile size I would probably opt for the 6mm sq notch.
 
Thanks for the reply. Ive got a 8mm square but also just brought a 10x20mm half moon that I was going to use. Im probably over thinking it.


I guess im just looking for a soild bed of adsive so I was going to try both and bed a couple of tiles in and pull them back out to check all of the back of the tile had adhesive over it?
