Installation Tips
Dry-lay the 4x4-inch tiles in order on a flat surface to confirm the street perspective. Use white thin set mortar over a level reference line and back butter each tile to keep joints even. Maintain 3–4 mm grout joints to preserve the painted façades. Choose non sanded grout to avoid scratching Talavera glaze. Seal cement grout only, caulk changes of plane, and allow full curing before regular cleaning.
Maintenance
Clean splashes with pH-neutral soap and water using a soft cloth. Avoid acids, bleach, abrasive powders, and scouring pads that can dull glazed surfaces. Reseal grout once a year in kitchens or patios, check silicone at corners, and remove dust from relief areas with a soft nylon brush. Do not use metal scrapers or steel wool on hand-painted tiles.
