Rinse again with sponge and clean water if necessary. Let dry until grout is hard and haze forms on tile surface, then polish with a soft cloth. Rinse sponge frequently and change water as needed. Wait 15-20 minutes for grout to set slightly, then use a damp sponge to clean grout residue from surface and smooth the grout joints. Tilt it at a 90-degree angle and scrape it diagonally across tiles. Remove excess grout from surface immediately with the edge of float. Remove tile spacers and spread grout on the tile surface, forcing down into joints with a rubber grout float or squeegee. Make only enough to use in about 30 minutes. Carefully read and follow all instructions and precautions on the grout package. Generally, you should wait about 24 hours before grouting (refer to the adhesive package for specifics). Do not walk on tiles until they are set (usually in 24 hours). Remove excess adhesive from joints with a putty knife and from tile with a damp sponge. When grid is completely installed, tap in all tiles with a rubber mallet or hammer and wood block to ensure a good bond and level plane. Any rectangle porcelain should never be set in a running bond pattern, rather no more than a 1/3 overlap the joint should be widened to 3/16' and use of a large unit porcelain mortar should be employed. Fit perimeter tiles in each grid last, leaving 1/4' gap between tile and wall. Insert tile spacers as each tile is set, or leave equal joints between tiles. Set tiles one at a time using a slight twisting motion. Start with the first tile in the corner of the grid and work outward. Finish each grid before moving to the next.

Begin installing tiles in the center of the room, one grid at a time. Variation of shades is an inherent characteristic of marble, stone and ceramic tile – mix tiles from several cartons as you set, for a blended effect. If you do order additional tile for an older job be sure to match color lots before installation.Additional shipments may not match the tile from previous shipment. If you are short of material do not start installation until you have all the tile that blends.Be sure to calculate exact tile needed for your surface before installation.If material is face taped, remove tape after installation.Order extra material for cuts, spare tiles, and waste.

Since variation of shades is an inherent characteristic of ceramic tile, mix tiles from several cartons as you set, for a blended effect.

Mix only enough to be used within 30 minutes.

Carefully read and follow all instructions and precautions on the adhesive or mortar package.
