Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
- Surface Preparation: Ensure the existing floor is clean, dry, and completely flat. Remove any debris, dirt, or old adhesive residue. For uneven surfaces, consider using a leveling compound first.
- Acclimation: Allow the tiles to acclimate to the room temperature for at least 24 hours before installation.
- Layout: Plan your tile layout to minimize cuts and waste. Start from the center of the room and work outwards.
- Cutting: Use a utility knife and a straight edge to score the tile. Then, carefully snap the tile along the scored line.
- Application: Peel off the backing and carefully align the tile with your starting point. Press firmly to ensure good adhesion.
Compatibility
The tiles are compatible with clean, dry, and flat surfaces such as existing tiles, wood floors, and concrete.
Care
- Cleaning: Sweep or vacuum regularly to remove dirt and debris. Mop with a damp cloth or a mild cleaner.
- Avoid Abrasives: Do not use abrasive cleaners, steel wool, or harsh chemicals that can scratch or damage the surface.
- Protect from Heavy Objects: Use floor protectors under furniture legs to prevent scratches or indentations.
- Spills: Wipe up spills immediately to prevent water damage.
