Glass colours is an agglomerate of glass fragments and coloured resin.
The surface is treated with a waterproof wax coating that protects the material against stains
and allows easy maintenance.
The level of liquid absorption is zero. If the surface comes into contact with strongly-coloured
or acid substances such as coffee, cola, oil, lemon, etc., cleaning with a damp cloth is
recommended.
Glass Colors tiles are laid on a self-levelling compact substrate using specific adhesives
such as MAPEI GRANIRAPID, MAPEI KERALASTIC, KERAKOLL H40 MARMOREX, KERAKOLL
H40 SUPERFLEX or similar.
Used as either flooring or wall covering, spacing of at least 1-1.5mm is required for the
40x40 cm formats and 2 mm for larger formats. The spaces are filled with standard tile
grouting (MAPEI ULTRACOLOR, KERAKOLL FUGABELLA) in the colour closest to that of the
resin.
Diamond slitting wheels are needed for dry or wet tile cutting. For border shaping, standard
diamond tools for marble are used for wet cutting.
Slight curving of the larger formats (40x40 cm, 60x40 cm, 60x60 cm, 110x30.5 cm) and
sheets can occur, which is dependent upon the material flexibility. It is recommended that
the tiles or sheets are spread on a flat surface and held in this position for at least 2 hours
before laying.
