Installation Guide – Step by Step
Step 1: Surface Preparation – Start with a Clean Foundation
- Clean and dry the installation surface, removing all dust, oil, and residue.
- Ensure the substrate is level, solid, and crack-free for even tile adhesion.
- In wet areas like showers, apply a waterproofing membrane.
- Remove trims, outlet covers, or obstacles before starting layout.
- Use a leveling compound where necessary for a perfectly flat base.
Step 2: Layout Planning – Maintain Balance and Flow
- Find the center of the wall or surface for symmetrical layout.
- Dry-lay the 1″ hexagon sheets to preview the marble veining and tone variation.
- Adjust to minimize small cuts at the edges.
- Use 1–2 mm spacers between sheets for a clean grout line.
Step 3: Adhesive Application – Choose a Reliable Thin-Set
Recommended Brands:
- Mapei Ultraflex LFT (White)
- Laticrete 254 Platinum (White)
- Ardex X 5
Instructions:
- Mix small batches usable within 30 minutes.
- Spread adhesive using the flat side of a 1/4″ notched trowel.
- Comb mortar at a 45° angle for full coverage.
- Back-butter the sheets for strong adhesion.
- Work in small sections to prevent premature drying.
Step 4: Cutting & Fitting – Precision Is Key
- Use a wet saw with a fine diamond blade for clean cuts.
- Mark and measure cuts carefully for alignment accuracy.
- Smooth cut edges with a stone file or rubbing block.
- Always dry-fit before setting tiles permanently.
Step 5: Setting Tiles – Keep the Honeycomb Pattern Consistent
- Start from the center and move outward for even spacing.
- Press mesh-mounted sheets gently but firmly into thin-set.
- Maintain consistent grout joints using spacers.
- Tap lightly with a rubber mallet to ensure level placement.
- Clean excess thin-set with a damp sponge before it hardens.
- Allow 24 hours for the adhesive to cure before grouting.
Step 6: Grouting & Sealing – Finish with Care
- Use non-sanded grout to protect the polished marble surface.
- Apply diagonally with a rubber float to fill joints evenly.
- Wipe grout haze immediately with a soft sponge.
- Buff lightly after 15–20 minutes for a clean finish.
- Let grout cure for at least 72 hours.
- Seal using a penetrating marble-safe sealer for long-lasting protection.
Maintenance Tips – Keep It Looking New
- Use only pH-neutral stone cleaners for daily care.
- Avoid acidic or abrasive products that can dull the polished finish.
- Reseal periodically based on use and exposure to moisture.
- Use felt pads under nearby furniture or décor to prevent scratches.
