Installation Guide – Dolomite Polished Marble Crown Molding
Step 1: Surface Preparation – Establish a Clean Base
- Ensure wall surfaces are clean, dry, and level at the top edge of your tile field.
- Complete all tile installations below the crown molding before placement.
- Mark a horizontal guide line along the top edge of the wall for accurate alignment.
Step 2: Dry Layout – Fit and Visual Flow
- Dry-lay all molding pieces to determine optimal placement and veining flow.
- Use a wet saw with a fine diamond blade to cut and miter ends for clean corner transitions.
- Check for consistency in polish and stone tone between pieces.
Step 3: Adhesive Application – Set in Place
Recommended Adhesives:
- Laticrete 254 Platinum White
- Mapei Ultralite White (non-sag)
Instructions:
- Apply a small amount of thin-set mortar to the back of each piece using a margin or V-notch trowel.
- Back-butter to ensure full contact and press the molding gently into place along your guide line.
- Support the molding temporarily with painter’s tape to prevent slippage as it cures (minimum 24 hours).
Step 4: Grouting – Detail Finishing
- After curing, use non-sanded grout to fill joints between pieces.
- Apply grout with a rubber float or grout bag and wipe away excess with a damp sponge.
- Buff surface with a soft cloth after 30–45 minutes to remove any haze.
Step 5: Sealing – Protect the Stone
- Allow grout to cure fully (72 hours), then apply a penetrating marble-safe sealer.
- Reseal as needed depending on exposure to humidity or cleaning agents.
Maintenance Tips
- Use only pH-neutral cleaners suitable for marble surfaces.
- Avoid acidic or abrasive substances that may damage the polished finish.
- Dust and wipe regularly with a soft cloth to maintain shine.
Important Note
Dolomite is a natural marble, and variation in tone and veining is normal. Always dry-lay and inspect all pieces prior to installation. Stonemarket USA is not responsible for installation issues or natural variation.
