Unglazed ceramic tile question...
Alex writes:
- Are all unglazed ceramic tiles porcelain?
No. What's the water absorption spec? If no spec, then measure it
yourself.
- Do I need to worry about staining the tile with the thinset mix or
grout?
Just test one.
- How do you make the cuts? I read that you can't just score them
with the blade machine... do I need a wetsaw to make all of the cuts?
Depends on the tile. Typically you must saw.
- Will I need to reseal it now and again?
Define "seal". Clear paint type? Wax or silicone water repellant type?
Porcelain should be non-absorptive. Anything less you will regret under
traffic.
"Sealer" is the wrong term for tile sealers.
