Install a Flowing Blend of Elegance with Expert Precision

This detailed installation guide helps you properly set your Fish Scale Dolomite, Iceberg, and Vanilla Marble Mosaic Tile. These instructions ensure a clean, durable finish while maintaining the polished surface and the soft, curved fish scale pattern.

Step 1: Surface Preparation – Build on a Strong Foundation

Clean and dry the wall surface; remove dust, grease, and residue
Ensure the base is flat, stable, and crack-free
Apply waterproofing membrane in showers, bathrooms, and kitchen backsplashes
Remove baseboards and other obstacles before beginning
Use a self-leveling compound to fix uneven surfaces if necessary

Step 2: Layout Planning – Maintain Flow and Symmetry

Find the center of each wall and snap chalk lines to guide your layout
Dry-lay tile sheets to check spacing and the balance of the color blend
Avoid thin cuts at the borders by adjusting sheet placement
Place spacers (1.5–3mm) between sheets for even grout lines
Ensure curves and color transitions flow naturally across sheets

Step 3: Adhesive Application – Choose a High-Performance Thin-Set

Recommended Mortars:

Mapei
Laticrete
Ardex

Application Instructions:

Mix small batches of thin-set usable within 30 minutes
Apply using the flat side of a 1/4″ notched trowel
Comb mortar at a 45° angle for full coverage
Back-butter each sheet to strengthen bonding
Work in small sections to prevent premature drying

Step 4: Cutting & Fitting – Precision Around Curves

Use a wet saw with a diamond blade for clean cuts
Mark cuts with a pencil or wax marker
Smooth edges with a rubbing stone for safety and polish
Use tile nippers for small, curved adjustments
Dry-fit all pieces before final placement

Step 5: Setting the Tiles – Follow the Natural Flow

Start tiling from the center and move outward
Press each mesh-backed sheet into mortar with a light twist
Do not slide the sheets after setting
Maintain alignment using spacers between sheets
Tap with a rubber mallet to level the surface
Wipe away excess mortar with a damp sponge
Let the adhesive cure for 24 hours before grouting

Step 6: Grouting & Sealing – Protect the Finish

Remove spacers before grouting
Use unsanded grout to avoid scratching the polished marble
Apply grout diagonally using a rubber float
Clean excess grout immediately
After 15–20 minutes, wipe the haze with a damp sponge
Let grout cure for 72 hours before sealing
Use a premium penetrating marble sealer for protection

Maintenance – Keep the Surface Looking Pristine

Clean regularly with pH-neutral stone-safe cleaners
Avoid harsh or acidic products
Reapply sealer as needed based on usage
Place felt pads under furniture near tiled areas
