Use and Care Manual

SUBSTRATE

• Tile must be installed over a suitable substrate to insure a proper installation. Tile should

be installed over a clean, sound, and flat surface, free of contaminates including curing

compounds. Substrate should be free of cracks.

INSTALLATION

• To avoid affecting the color of the tile, White modified thin-set is highly recommended.

• Apply as much adhesive as can be covered within 10-15 minutes.

• Grout joint should be a minimum of 1/16” and not butt set.

• The trowel size you can use is a 9" Trowel - 1/16" square notch.

GROUTING

• Grout joints should be packed full and free of voids and pits.

• Clean excess grout as the work progresses before it has hardens completely.

• Acids should never be used for cleaning grout haze.

• Use a damp sponge for the final cleaning and to smooth out the grout joints.

• It is recommended to use non-sanded grout.

CUTTING

• The recommended cutting method is to use a wet saw with a diamond blade that is

specifically for cutting glass. Edges can be sanded smooth after cutting.
