My take on adhesive spreaders did a full turn after a messy tile job

I always grabbed whatever spreader was on hand to save a minute. Last week, a notch that was too shallow made the tiles not stick right. I had to pull up half the floor and start over. Now I check the notch size for every type of tile. It actually speeds things up in the end.

A 1/4 inch square notch lays down adhesive totally different than a v-notch. The collapse pattern under the tile is what really locks it in place.

Nah, I've seen both notches give the same hold if the adhesive is mixed right, lol.
