Installation Tips
Dry-lay the mural on a flat surface before installation to align the archway and perspective correctly. Use white thin set mortar from a level baseline and back butter each tile. Keep 3–4 mm joints, use non sanded grout to protect glaze, and seal cement grout after curing. Caulk changes of plane and allow complete drying before cleaning.
Maintenance
Clean with pH-neutral soap and soft cloths only. Avoid acidic or abrasive cleaners, bleach, or harsh pads that can dull glaze. Reseal grout annually, check for caulk integrity, and dust decorative details with a soft nylon brush. Do not use steel wool or sharp tools on the mural surface.
Disclaimer: This mural is handmade and hand-painted by artisans in Mexico. Slight variations in glaze tone, brushwork, or color are natural and enhance authenticity.
