FAQs

Can I use these tiles on a bathroom floor?

No, these are ceramic wall tiles and are not designed to withstand the foot traffic or impact resistance required for flooring.

How many tiles come in a box?

Each box is packaged to cover 1sqm; the exact number of pieces may vary depending on manufacturing, so always calculate an additional 10% for waste and cuts.

Do I need to seal these tiles?

As glazed ceramic tiles, they do not require sealing. However, the grout used between them should be sealed to prevent staining.

Are these tiles suitable for outdoor use?

No, they are strictly for indoor wall installations as they are not rated for temperature fluctuations or weather exposure.

Can I cut these with a standard tile cutter?

Yes, these tiles can be scored and snapped with a standard manual tile cutter or cut using a wet saw for more complex shapes.

Troubleshooting

Tiles appear uneven after installation

The tiles have a natural 'bumpy' texture; ensure you are using a tile leveling system during installation to maintain a flat plane across the wall.

Difficulty cleaning grout haze

Use a specialized grout haze remover or a damp sponge immediately after grouting; do not let the excess dry on the glossy surface.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Reflective high-gloss finish helps brighten interior spaces
  • Rich dark blue color adds significant visual depth
  • Easy to manage size makes installation straightforward
  • Subtle shade variations create a natural, high-end look

Cons

  • Not suitable for floor installations due to ceramic composition
  • Indoor wall use only
  • Bumpy texture requires consistent thin-set application

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation Tips:

  • Ensure the wall substrate is clean, dry, and level before application.
  • Use a high-quality ceramic wall tile adhesive suitable for the weight of these tiles.
  • Due to the 'bumpy' texture, use a notched trowel to ensure even mortar coverage and avoid air pockets behind the tile.

Maintenance:

  • Wipe with a damp cloth and mild household detergent for routine cleaning.
  • Avoid abrasive scouring pads that could scratch the gloss finish over time.
  • Regularly inspect grout lines for cracking, especially in high-moisture zones like shower surrounds.
