Installation Guide – Step by Step
Step 1: Surface Preparation – Start on Solid Ground
- Ensure the substrate is clean, dry, flat, and free of grease or dust.
- Correct surface irregularities with a self-leveling compound.
- Apply a waterproof membrane for wet areas like showers or backsplashes.
Step 2: Layout Planning – Symmetry and Flow
- Mark the center of your installation area for balanced alignment.
- Dry-lay mosaic sheets to preview veining flow and dot alignment.
- Blend sheets from multiple boxes to ensure natural variation consistency.
- Use 1/16″ to 1/8″ spacers between sheets to maintain uniform grout lines.
Step 3: Thin-Set Application – Precision is Key
Recommended Mortars:
- Mapei Adesilex P10 (with Keraply for added strength)
- Laticrete Glass Tile Adhesive Mortar (white)
- Ardex X77 White
Instructions:
- Use a 3/16″ V-notched trowel or 1/4″ square-notched trowel for proper coverage.
- Apply thin-set evenly and comb in one direction at a 45° angle.
- Back-butter mosaic sheets for full bonding when necessary.
- Gently press sheets into place with a rubber grout float or beating block.
Step 4: Cutting & Adjustments – Finish Neatly
- Use a wet saw with a fine diamond blade to cut marble tiles cleanly.
- Cut sheets from the back mesh side to reduce chipping.
- Use a stone file to smooth sharp edges if needed.
Step 5: Grouting – Handle the Finish with Care
- Seal tiles with a marble-safe penetrating sealer before grouting to prevent staining.
- Use non-sanded grout to avoid scratching the polished surface.
- Apply grout diagonally using a rubber float to fill joints evenly.
- Clean the surface promptly with a damp sponge to avoid residue build-up.
- Buff away haze with a microfiber cloth after 30–45 minutes.
Step 6: Final Sealing – Lock in Beauty
- Once grout has cured (typically 72 hours), apply a second coat of sealer.
- Use a penetrating marble-safe sealer for long-term protection.
Maintenance Tips – Keep It Radiant
- Use only pH-neutral, non-acidic stone cleaners.
- Wipe spills quickly to prevent etching or staining.
- Regularly reseal surfaces depending on location and usage frequency.
