DCOF Rating (See Tech Specs Tab) is a measurement of a tiles frictional resistance. It is the specifier’s responsibility to ensure the chosen tile is appropriate for each interior and exterior application.
Marvel is a rectified color body porcelain tile which is inspired by the prestige of the most precious marbles of Italian tradition. Thanks to the surprising realism of pure colors, natural veins, intense shades and transparent clouding, each marble of reference is faithfully reproduced, adding all the benefits of porcelain tiles. This series is suitable for residential and commercial applications.
Because this material is a porcelain product, minimal maintenance is required. Grout release is recommended for the polished finish, prior to grouting so grout powders do not fill pores in the tile surface, which can attract dirt when walked upon. It is recommended to use a coordinating grout color for all polished porcelain, contrasting grout colors are not recommended. There can be noticeable variances between pieces, so it is important and recommended that a range of this product be viewed before finalizing a purchase. Piece to piece variation in shade or color are inherent in all fired clay products; therefore, it is recommended to mix tiles from several boxes at a time during installation to achieve the best range of color. When mixing sizes within a series, shade, texture and calibration differences should be expected.
For proper bonding, LHT/LFT mortar for large format and heavy tiles should be used when installing tiles with a dimensional length greater than 15 inches and rectangular and square shape tile, per industry standards. Proper thinset coverage is also necessary, and in some cases, back buttering of tile may be required.
