If the walls are flat, would you not get away with a 6mm trowel? Or do you need to go bigger because of the size of the tile? Just wondering, as last time i used my 8mm trowel there was a lot af addy coming up through the grout lines.

I don't know what the patches are on the tiles - they look like shadows or wet duck footprints! My best shot would be adhesive on the side of the joint/bad mix of grout/something in a cleaning agent/something spilt! It could be coming up from below - but without removing a tile!!!

This is mainly when a grout is mixed to wet...air pockets form whilst mixing.. ..try using less water..or even better mix to the ratio on the packet.
