How to Install Relief Tiles

Installing Mexican high relief tiles requires special attention due to their three-dimensional nature. Make sure to leave an adequate gap between tiles to account for slight variations in size. For stair risers, ensure the surface is smooth and even before applying adhesive. Use a thin-set mortar for best results. When applying grout, opt for a contrasting color to highlight the raised designs. Allow the tiles to cure for 24 hours before using any moisture or cleaning methods.
