Just ordered 2 tiger trowels for 1200x2400 porc. gonna back skim tile and trowel floor. prepped the floor myself and is bob on now after a s*** concrete job.

tried that trowel out you wont get full covaridge about 80% but you will use 30% more adhesive 10mm ragni all day long will beat it hands down

Took your and Marc's advice this morning Ray and ordered two of them, I'm certainly not gonna ignore any advise from you guys. I was just surprised to find that a flat skim to the tile would be more effective than a notched one and thats what i was querying, but you've done the test and thats good enough for me.
Thanks again for the advice

The tiger trowels are ok, in their literature they state you don't need to back butter tiles but you do.
