| Product Information |
APPLICATION
Beach Glass is 1/2" thick, making it one of the strongest mosaic materials
on the market. It can be used in ANY residential or commercial location:
interior
or exterior, on walls, counters, floors, patios or in swimming pools. Because
the surface is textured, Beach Glass is slip resistant when wet.
We designed Beach Glass as the perfect compliment to most stone, ceramic and
metal tile. It matches superbly with granite, limestone, slate and marble --
as well as with our own Del Mar Ceramic and metal tile lines. Ask to see Beach
Glass alongside other materials.
EASE OF USE
Beach Glass is mounted on clear tape. The tape faces up during installation,
which permits your installer to see and control spacing. In addition, the tape
leaves no glue residue once it is removed. For larger installations, our field
tile comes in 10" x 10" sheets that are easy to handle and easy to place.
INSTALLATION
We strongly recommend that you use only white thin-set mortar with 100% latex
additive. Apart from this, Beach Glass requires nothing more than standard tile
installation. Simply apply the thin-set, smooth out the trowel marks (Beach Glass
is translucent) and lay the tile with the tape facing up. Beach Glass can be
trimmed using any wet-saw with a diamond blade. Once the thin-set has dried,
peel off the tape and grout as you normally would with ceramic tile.
GROUT
Any color grout, sanded or unsanded, may be used. Be sure to check the manufacturer‚s
specifications as they apply to your installation. Interestingly, the color of
the grout will impart color to the glass, which allows Beach Glass to blend with
any color tile or stone.
UPKEEP
Beach Glass is non-pourous. A grout sealer may be used because it will not penetrate
the tile. If you desire a more transparent or "wet look" periodically
apply any paste wax. Beach Glass may be cleaned with any standard floor or wall
cleaner.
LIGHT
Because Beach Glass is 1/2" thick, it refracts light wondrously, giving
an appearance that is soft and luminous. We strongly recommend that you light
Beach Glass once it is installed to fully appreciate its beauty.
