Main Street installation & maintenance Installation Procedures Backing Material (Substrate): The surface to be tiled must be clean, dry, flat and structurally sound (does not flex when weight is applied), secure, and free from any type of contamination that can act as a bond breaker or bond inhibitor. If there is any substance present that could inhibit the bond of the mortars used, it must be completely removed. Suitable substrates include, but are not limited to, exterior grade plywood, cement backer board, concrete, mortar beds, cement plaster, and existing ceramic tile/stone. Refer to industry information for a complete list of approved substrates. When using the double plywood or plywood/cement backer board scheme, check to ensure that the proper types and thickness of plywood are used. Mortar: Depending on the application and conditions present, the use of a liquid-latex fortified, medium bed or epoxy thin-set mortar is recommended for the installation of Porcelain Stone tile. It can also be installed in mortar bed (i.e., thick bed) applications. Consult the installation materials manufacturer for additional information and instructions. Ensure that adequate coverage of mortar is present under the tiles to provide proper bedding coverage and problem-free performance. Grouting: A polymer-modified, liquid-latex fortified or epoxy grout should be used with Porcelain Stone tiles. While grout-staining problems are extremely rare when using Crossville products, a small test patch is recommended when using a dark grout over a light-colored tile, or vice versa. The test patch will also verify cleanability of the grout with heavily textured tile surfaces. Offset: If offset pattern is required for tile 18 inches or longer, Crossville recommends an offset of not greater than 33 percent. Usage Areas Main Street is recommended for interior floors, walls and countertops and exterior walls in both residential and commercial installations. Main Street is not recommended for exterior horizontal surfaces or exterior paving. Cleaning Procedures Please consult our How to Care for Porcelain Tile brochure for proper cleaning procedures after grouting as well as for routine maintenance. For routine maintenance, please refer to the procedures under Daily Maintenance, or CROSS-SHEEN, depending on the type of cleaning required.
