Is this floor tile or on a wall? http://www.johnbridge.com/ http://www.homeadditionplus.com/tile-stone-info/Back_Buttering_Tiles.htm Thx, Oren, both good resources. I know my little films are goofy as all get out. The Tim Tilewell thing is an homage to Timothy Treadwell, who documented what he was passionate for until that thing ate him: he was into grizzlies not tile. I'm able to show my client that not only am I completing her bathroom tile, but I'm keeping her dogs safe as well. I only have it in me to make one video for all purposes. I've got almost all the tile laid and grouted now. I'll be caulking the edges like rico recommended. Cheers, -- Uno -- Uno |

If I knew years ago about new methods for showers I would use the modern ones. Not on the drywall with tile. Good luck. p.s. - set your computer clock. |
