Setup, Compatibility & Care
For optimal results, follow these installation and maintenance guidelines:
- Substrate Preparation: The floor must be clean, dry, and perfectly level. Use a self-leveling compound if the subfloor is uneven.
- Adhesive Selection: Use a high-quality, flexible cement-based adhesive to accommodate thermal expansion, especially if using underfloor heating.
- Grouting: A minimum 3mm grout joint is recommended to allow for structural movement and to achieve the intended visual finish.
- Cutting: Due to the porcelain density, use a professional wet diamond blade saw to ensure clean, chip-free edges.
- Cleaning: Regular care involves sweeping or vacuuming to remove grit, followed by mopping with a pH-neutral tile cleaner to preserve the matt finish.
