HOW TO FIX YOUR GLASS TILES & SPLASH-BACKS

When fixing your glass tiles, or a splash-back, you should use the 'Solid Bed' method.  That is, you do not use a ribbed applicator, which you often get free with your tile cement.

You should use a flexible white adhesive - ask for Class C2

Coat the area to be tiled, not too large an area, preferably no more than 20 minutes of work, and smooth it as flat as possible.  You can also coat the back of the tile but don't forget, make it a smooth coating and do not used a ribbed applicator.

Press the glass tile firmly into the wall and that is all.

Grout as you would a normal tile.

If tiling swimming pools, or wet rooms, a 'Solid Bed' adhesive application is required anyway, as it prevents water getting behind the tiles.  Apply about a 3 mm thickness of adhesive and grout as normal.

After grouting, clean the glass tiles as you would ordinary tiles.
