i use 10/20, but also depending on what setting you use (argen etc...) some have a preset gap setting that no matter if you change it at the beginning stages of the design, it will not change.

but again, do not take my numbers as the correct one.

If you have a mill , play with settings and mill wax . Dial it in .
If you use milling service , ask the center what they recommend and go from there .
Basic and good law for veneers from what I've learned is, Intimate fit makes for proper bonding and better light and color transfer between tooth/restoration .
So far a good prep and lost wax wins the day .
Lithium disilicate of some sort plus layering helps . Since it bonds good and easier then feldspathic from point of adjustability after try in .

It depends on what cement your doctor uses. Ask them what they use for bonding and then you can look film thickness and optimal thickness. Most have a film thickness of around 20 microns and the optimal thickness around 30-40 microns, but varies between manufacturers.
