[QUOTE="Raccus, post: 934896, member: 50274"] Ah thats a good idea Adey, the marble. Was thinking to overhang tile to make a slight lip on window sill if needed, but was a bit uneasy about that look, not to mention danger of tile edge breaking in time. Not keen on the wood idea, because of the water element. And Boggs, Wall opposite backer boards didnt need boards, was painted plaster skim, so I have scraped all paint off there, cause its a big wall, tiled floor to ceiling. (Well top layer of paint came off, the one under that does not at all, so thats staying and presumably will). But window sill, small area, so not too worried about that. But still, scraping off paint where it comes off. If it doesnt with moderate effort (well thats subjective innit) then it stays on and again, presumably will do after tiling. But about the adhesive, does it matter if its thick? Using an 8mm trowel on wall and backskimming tiles a few mms (or is it backbuttering, cant remember which is which, im doing it flat on, ie not using a notched trowel to bead it, just scraping it on).
