[QUOTE="Shoot Summ, post: 3719071, member: 1055"] They suggest that spacing due to the long tiles not being flat, makes the "lippage" less noticeable. If your tiles are perfectly flat then you can use what you want spacing wise. You always start the tile from vertical center line of the wall, helps to also use the horizontal center line for not completely necessary. Any change in plane(wall to wall, wall to floor, wall to ceiling) gets caulked, use the same spacing as the grout lines, but you can get away with a little more or less due to the spread of the caulk. Forgot to ask, are you laying them horizontally, or vertically? In that shower I would do them vertically. [/QUOTE]
