Important Installation Note

Antique Brick Gloss Sealed tiles show variation in colors and textures; these tiles will not be identical piece to piece. This is a result of the handmade process. If properly installed, Saltillo tiles will result in a beautiful, durable, easy to maintain surface that can be enjoyed for many years. Please read our Saltillo tile installation guideline prior to installation. PLEASE CONFIRM that your tile is pre-sealed. Though pre-sealed tiles do not require further sealing, using a conventional “grout release” will increase the efficiency of grout application. We recommended to apply a grout test on a loose piece of tile prior to full grout application.

• We suggested that mix tiles from different boxes during setting to produce a beautiful and natural appearance.
• Note that grout will adhere as a permanent fixture to the surface texture. Consider the above when selecting your grout color.
• This tile requires additional sealing. Read sealing guide here.
