Useful tips

 In case you feel like enhancing the hue of the mosaic tiles with a matte or glossy finish, ensure that you use a natural color enhancer prior to the application of sealer.

  • Ensure that you use high-quality materials like sealer and grit so that your tiles last long without succumbing to the effects of wear and tear.
  • When preparing the grout that you’ll use try as possible to avoid adding excess water to the first mix because it could lead to weak grout that flakes easily.
