Glass Mosaic Tb136
Glass Mosaic Installation Technical Bulletin Category: Tiling Keywords: Glass Mosaic, Tile, Thin Set, Grout Glass mosaics bring a beautiful look to any surface. Glass Mosaics come in different types, sizes, colors and patterns and are used in residential and commercial projects on backsplashes above sink, bathrooms, showers, and fireplaces. There are 3 different types of glass tile; cast glass tile, fused glass tile, and low- temperature-coated glass tile as per ANSI A137.2 standard. Typically glass mosaics are larger than ¾”x ¾” and smaller than 3”x3”. Many questions have come up on which setting materials to use for a long lasting glass mosaic installation. In this technical bulletin will help you to select the appropriate Merkrete products for setting glass mosaics. Considerations to take before installing glass mosaics: Substrates All substrates should be plumb and true, substrate deviation should not exceed 1/8” in 10’ or 1/16 in 3’. Substrate preparation should be completed following ANSI A108 AN-2 “General Requirements for Sub- surfaces. Substrate should be dry, clean and free from oil, grease, wax, paint, old adhesives, sealers and curing compounds. Any contaminates which inhibit proper bond must be removed. Recommendation for setting: Merkrete Integra - Is a non-abrasive all-in-one adhesive and grout for glass mosaics installations on walls and floors. Integra was developed especially for the installation of mosaics and glass tile of all shapes and sizes with no concerns about thin set color bleed through because the adhesive and the grout are the same color. Merkrete Integra is available in 8 different colors.
