Installation
It is recommend to dry-fit your pattern first to think about your cuts in advance and to make sure you like the pattern. This will also help you choose which pieces go where, which is especially helpful with tiles that have a lot of variation. To avoid affecting the color of the tile, white thinset such as Bostik PM is highly is recommended for all installations. For faster installation, use a rapid curing thinset such as Bostik Single-Flex Fast Set. Apply as much adhesive as can be covered within 10-15 minutes. 3/16in or 1/4in square notch trowel should be used when installing our marble material and ridges should be smoothed down with the flat side of the trowel prior to fixing the tiles in the mortar bed
Recommended Adhesive
Bostik PM or Bostik Single-Flex Fast Set
Recommended Grout
Non-sanded grout is ideal for all natural stone. In the event that the grout joints are larger than 1/8in you should mix Sanded and Non-Sanded grouts for added density

Maintenance
For normal care and maintenance of stone tiles, clean stone surfaces with a few drops of neutral cleaner, stone soap, or a mild liquid dishwashing detergent and warm water. Use a clean soft cloth for best results. Too much cleaner or soap may leave a film and cause streaks. Do not use products that contain lemon, vinegar, or other acids on marble or limestone. Rinse the surface thoroughly after washing with the soap solution and dry with a soft cloth. Do not use any abrasive cleaners
