I can either use caulk to
seal the joint (under a large roof overhang) or standard mortar.

I installed the ceramic tile lookalike style in the front entryway and did try that plastic hand roller from HD but hated it and returned it. So when we did the kitchen I took a dumb bell bar from an old weight set of mine (see, they do have uses!) and...
