Question

Backbuttering Tile


Why are you supposed to backbutter porceilain but it is not required for ceramic tile they are both clay just the porceilain is denser it seems to me that the porceilain would not need to be backbuttered bc is is harder what sizes do you backbutter and do you backbutter wall tiles?
