FAQs

What is the exact size of this tile sample?

This is a sample of the Ceramica Pearl Lustre tile, which comes in a 30cm x 60cm format. The sample itself will be a smaller representation to show the finish and texture.

Can these tiles be used in a shower area?

Yes, these ceramic tiles are suitable for indoor wall applications, including shower areas, provided they are installed correctly with appropriate waterproofing and grout.

How do I clean the pearlescent finish?

Clean with a soft, damp cloth and mild, non-abrasive detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners that could damage the finish.

Are these tiles suitable for floors?

No, these tiles are specifically designed for indoor wall applications only and are not suitable for floor use.

What is the difference between a sample and a full pack?

A sample allows you to preview the color, finish, and texture in your own space. Full packs contain multiple tiles for a complete installation, and while efforts are made for consistency, slight variations between batches can occur.

What adhesive should I use?

Use a tile adhesive specifically recommended for ceramic wall tiles and the intended environment. Consult with your tiler or tile supplier for the most appropriate product.

Do these tiles require sealing?

Ceramic tiles are generally non-porous and do not require sealing. The grout lines, however, may benefit from a grout sealer to protect against staining.

Troubleshooting

Uneven finish between tiles

Ensure tiles are from the same batch. Slight variations are inherent in pearlescent finishes. Verify adhesive application is consistent and not too thick.

Grout haze on the surface

Clean immediately after grouting with a damp sponge, rinsing frequently. If haze has dried, use a specialized grout haze remover suitable for ceramic tiles, following product instructions carefully.

Chipped edges during installation

Use appropriate tile cutting tools (e.g., a wet saw with a fine blade). Handle tiles with care, especially at the edges, and ensure a stable cutting surface.

  • Durable ceramic material suitable for indoor walls.

Cons

  • This is a sample; full packs may have slight batch variations.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

Installation of Ceramica Pearl Lustre tiles should be performed by a qualified tiler experienced with ceramic wall tiles. Ensure the wall substrate is clean, dry, and structurally sound. Use an appropriate tile adhesive suitable for ceramic tiles and the intended environment. Follow standard tiling practices for cutting, spacing, and grouting.

Compatibility:

These tiles are specifically designed for indoor wall applications only. They are compatible with most standard tile backer boards and prepared plasterboard walls. Not recommended for floor use, external applications, or areas with constant high moisture exposure.

Care:

To maintain the pearl lustre finish, regular cleaning with a soft, damp cloth is recommended. For tougher stains, use a mild, non-abrasive detergent diluted in warm water. Avoid using harsh chemicals, abrasive cleaners, or scouring pads, as these can damage the pearlescent coating and matt finish. Wipe spills promptly to prevent staining.
