Application and Firing Notes
- Before painting, dust on the surfaces must be removed with a clean, dry brush.
- For continuous designs, the arrangement order and orientation of the tiles must be determined before application.
- The firing temperature must be adjusted according to the technical specifications of the paint and glaze used.
- The glaze must be applied at an even thickness to achieve consistent color and surface results across the tiles.
- The backs of the tiles and the areas that come into contact with the kiln shelf must be kept free of glaze.
- During firing, the tiles must be placed flat on suitable kiln shelves that support their entire surface.
- During transportation and storage, protective material must be placed between the tiles to protect their edges from impact.
- Before installation, the layout, pattern continuity, and spacing between the tiles must be checked.
INSTALLATION WARNING: If the tiles will be installed on a wall, furniture, or another surface, the installation area must be checked to ensure that it is dry, clean, and level. The adhesive and grout must be suitable for ceramic tiles, the application area, and the environmental conditions.
Handcraftsmanship and Product Variations
Due to the ceramic production process, slight variations may occur between tiles in terms of dimensions, weight, thickness, surface texture, color tone, and edge structure. These variations do not affect use and result from the products’ natural manufacturing process.
TEST RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended to perform a small test before application to check the compatibility of the selected paint and glaze with the products, the surface consistency they produce across a series, and their firing behavior.
