Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Surface Preparation: Ensure the subfloor is clean, dry, level, and free of any debris or loose particles. Fill in any cracks or imperfections.
- Acclimation: Allow the tiles to acclimate to the room temperature for at least 48 hours before installation.
- Layout Planning: Plan your layout to minimize cuts and waste. Start from the center of the room and work outwards.
- Cutting: Use a utility knife and straight edge to cut the tiles to the desired size. Score the tile and then snap it along the score line.
- Installation: Peel off the backing and carefully apply the tile to the prepared surface, ensuring proper alignment.
- Sealing (Optional): Consider applying a sealant to the edges for added moisture protection.
Compatibility:
These tiles are compatible with most solid, dry, and level surfaces, including wood, concrete, and existing tile.
Care:
- Regularly sweep or vacuum the floor to remove dirt and debris.
- Mop with a damp cloth or a mild floor cleaner. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
- Protect the floor from scratches by using furniture pads under heavy items.
- Clean up spills immediately to prevent staining.
