USAGE
Walls, countertops, and flooring (subject to job specification). Recommended for interior use.
SHADE & SHAPE VARIATION
Mid to high range. Due to local raw materials and unique manufacturing techniques, variations in body and color from tile to tile are to be expected. This is considered desirable and part of the inherent beauty of our product.
INSTALLATION
Jerusalem Stone should be dry-laid prior to installation to inspect for color, shading, and size variance. Material should be combined from each case to ensure optimal blending of shade variations. Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions when using setting materials and sealers.
SEALING
Jerusalem Stone should be sealed prior to the grouting process for protection. A premium natural looking penetrating sealer is the normal choice for Jerusalem Stone. A stone enhancing sealer is often used on tumbled marble, antique stone, or slate where a darker or highlighted character is desired. When choosing either one of these types of sealers, make sure to select a brand formulated to provide maximum protection for stone or stone look products.
CARE & MAINTENANCE
For daily cleaning use a pH balanced, neutral spray cleaner for countertops. For deep-set, hard to remove stains, inquire about an industrial-strength tile stain remover. Be sure to use a cleaner made for tile, and follow the manufacturer’s instructions.
