This unglazed porcelain mosaic tile has solid colour throughout. Porcelain is much harder and more durable than ordinary ceramic tile, and it is impervious to liquids and frost-resistant. They are suitable for floor mosaics indoor and out.
These tiles are mounted on removable paper. Just soak in water to remove.
THE NEW FACTORY HAS BEEN VERY SLOW TO PRODUCE INVENTORY, SO COLOURS CAN RUN OUT OF STOCK FOR LONG PERIODS. I ONLY HAVE A LIMITED SUPPLY OF EACH COLOUR.

Tile Cutting
This product is not soft like glazed ceramic tile. Porcelain is extremely hard, but it can be cut. Use a compound tile cutter or the regular tile nippers. A file is also useful for smoothing the edges of cuts and shaping the pieces.
Product Specifications
Porcelain tile is unglazed, so IN THEORY its surface can be stained by grout. However, no one has ever reported these tiles being stained by grout in the way that tumbled stone and unglazed ceramic and seashells can be stained. This is because porcelain is essentially non-porous and impervious to moisture. Still, I recommend pre-sealing the tile before grouting:

This is because porcelain is essentially non-porous and impervious to moisture. Still, I recommend pre-sealing the tile before grouting:
- Mount the tiles to the surface to be covered.
- Use a rag or small artists paint brush to apply tile and grout sealer to the face of the tiles.
- Take care not to drip excess sealer in between the tiles or down the sides of the tiles or any place grout will need to bond.
