If performance data (such as absorption or coefficient of friction) is required, please contact LIVDEN before placing an order. Variation in color are inherent and should be expected. To ensure the smallest possible range in color variation, it is best to order enough tile to complete your installation and, depending on the project, 10 - 15% extra
Material & Finish

All products should be inspected and approved before installation begins. Allow tiles to dry set for 24 hours after they have been unpacked and inspected. Use a wet saw to cut tile, with design facing up. Pat dry and allow to completely air dry. Re-seal the cut edge with a high grade penetrating sealer before installing. When installed on shower walls, a high quality waterproofing system, such as Schulter or Laticrete, should be used
Recommended Adhesive
Rapid Set Thinset is recommended. Do not use mastic or premixed tile adhesives (for example, AcrylPro, Mapei Type 1 Tile Adhesive, Henry Mastic). Do not use tape of any kind on LIVDEN products. This includes blue tape
Recommended Grout
Non-sanded grout
Suitable Substrates
When installed on a concrete slab at ground level, ensure that a proper moisture barrier is in place prior to installation
