Installation Tips
Dry-lay the mural first to confirm orientation and spacing. Apply white thin set mortar from a level line, back butter each tile, and maintain 3–4 mm grout joints. Use non sanded grout to protect the glaze, seal only cement grout, and allow full curing before cleaning.
Maintenance
Wipe with pH-neutral soap and water using a soft cloth. Avoid acidic cleaners, bleach, or abrasives. Reseal grout annually, check caulk edges, and use a nylon brush for minor buildup. Never use steel wool or harsh pads.
