What do you guys recommend for 900 x 600 x 15 Limestone going down on Ditra Duo?
10mm-12mm notched?

Many thanks

12mm

I would probably use one of those long pattern 20mm wide 15 deep u notched trowel

A shovel?

12mm trowel isn’t gonna cut it for those tiles. Assuming the floor is spot on and the stone is calibrated, Something like a 10mm on the floor and 10mm on the back of the tile also.

I would personally use 12mm floor and 8mm on tile.

@Lakey ... I assume you were going to use the trowel for adhesive on the back of the tile too?

Any more suggestions - 15mm on floor and 5mm on back of tile?

I’d probably cut my own trowel to 16mm for floor and use a 4mm mosaic notch on the back of the tile, and always spread from left to right, not right to left
