What is the life expectancy of the Aspect Stone tile?
With proper care it should last as long a lifetime.
Does the surface of an Aspect Stone tile scratch easily?
No, it is durable stone. However, all stone can fracture, chip or scratch if struck with
sharp or heavy objects.
How should I seal Aspect Stone so it can easily be cleaned? What type of sealants do you
recommend?
Some Aspect stone tiles made from slate and quartzite are porous. Test your tiles to see
if they are porous by pouring water on its surface. If the water leaves a dark area after
drying, we recommend that you seal your tiles. If the stone does not change color, it
does not require sealing.
To seal your tiles, use an impregnating sealer, like Miracle Sealants® 511 Impregnator.
Follow the manufacturer's directions. Topical, color-enhancing sealers, like Miracle
Sealants® 1-Step Natural Stone Sealer and Color Enhancer can be used also. These
deepen and darken the color of the stone, making it appear always wet, but also offer
better protection than an impregnator.
When starting a project, would I work from one side to the other, or from the center out?
Starting in a corner and working left to right on your longest run produces the best
results.
How do I remove tile(s)?
If a tile needs to be removed, apply heat with a hair dryer to soften the adhesive. Use a
putty knife on the backside and slowly apply outward pressure to release the tile from
the wall. The adhesive is engineered not to be removed so caution should be taken so as
to not damage the wall. Any removed tiles may be unusable. ACP is not responsible or
liable if you damage your walls. If the adhesive is destroyed but the tile face is fine, you
can try using PL Premium® adhesive to reapply the tile.
