used an 8mm notched trowel on mosaic tiles - problem?

[roberto1490]

i tiled my wet room tray with small mosaic tiles. trouble is i used an 8mm notched trowel and now realise i should have used a 3/4mm. the adhesive i used is mapei keraquick in white. some of the adhesive came through the gaps in areas so i wiped the surface down. is this going to be a problem? the grout will be the same colour as the adhesive

It will show through, you need to clean the joints out...

For future reference don't use a trowel thickness great than half the tile thickness to prevent squash through..

as dave as all ready said you will need to clean joints out white grout will stand out like a sore thumb with the white tile adhesive
