Tiles are to be placed without concern for the arrow direction (random). Mixing tiles from various boxes during

installation will further blend color and design elements. This process is essential for achieving optimal aesthetics.

Cutting Border Tiles

Cuts are made from the back. Install border tiles by placing the tile face down exactly on top of the last row of eld tiles, keeping

the arrows pointed in the same directions. This will be your cut tile. Using another tile, butt it against the wall, allowing it to lie

on top of the tile that is to be cut. Using this tile as a reference tile, score a line on the back of the tile that is to be cut. Cut the

tile along the reference line, being careful not to cut through the installed tile below. Install the cut tile with the cut edge along

the wall. Use this same technique at doorways and around other objects. The EcoFlex NXT & EcoFlex Matrix tile must have the

backing cut slightly shorter by cutting the backing at a slight angle. A transition strip must be used to protect any exposed edges.

Tiles can also be cut by measuring and cutting with a straight edge and knife or by running them up the wall and cutting them with

a knife or wall trimmer.
