Need suggestions for non-slippery polished marble-like floor tile
Comments (11)Anna, I don't really think ANY of them are that bad, including real stone. I had a marble called pink argenta on my master bath floor when I had my house in Connecticut, and I wouldn't want to try running on it, but to walk across it, I never had any problems, nor did anyone else who used that bathroom. I don't think the Laufen is any more or less slippery than any other rectified polished porcelain. I just think that like myself, they don't see it as much of a problem as other companies might. Crossville's language might also be a legal disclaimer, much like McDonalds warning on the side of their coffee cups that contents are hot-- because some moron with no living brain cells won a law suit claiming they didn't realise......See Moreglass tiles that look like marble?
Comments (0)Hi everyone, I just posted this in the kitchen forum, but since I also want to use it in a bathroom, thought I would post here as well. Has anyone used this product? It looks like thassos but doesn't stain, b/c it is glass. Supposedly, you can clean it very easily. It goes by various names: glassos, thassos glass, milk glass, etc. I would love to hear your feedback. Who did you buy it from? How much did you pay? What room did you put it in? Was your contractor familiar with it? Has it held up (or did it scratch?) I'm considering using this on the kitchen and guest bath floors. Here is information I found on a manufacturer's site, but I wanted to get feedback from people who have actually used it. The text below is from this site: http://www.mineraltiles.com/products/Supreme-Milk-Glass-Tile.html "Supreme Milk Glass Tile recreates the beauty of the whitest natural stone available in the world: Thasos marble. A pure white crystallized glass is fused on a porcelain body allowing for easy installations and cuts as well as strength and consistency in color. Supreme Milk Glass does not require any type of treatment like the natural stone does, such as sealing and polishing. This product is sold by the box. A box of the 24"x24" covers 11.62 square feet and 32"x32" covers 13.77 square feet. Price per square foot of the 24"x24 is U$ 5.50 and 32"x32" is U$ 6.00 plus freight."...See Morekitchen flooring - glass tiles that look like marble?
Comments (4)Hi Sadie, Thanks - that is really interesting! I have been to Nemo and some of the other showrooms down in the 20s, but actually haven't seen this product in person yet. I just read about it online, and googled it. I found that website. I'm going to order a sample, too! Did Nemo give you a sample to take home? I would like to ask them for one so I can compare the two products. I wonder if this one I found online is not as durable as the Nemo version due to it being "fused" on porcelain, instead of solid glass? After I get the sample, I'll show it to my contractor and see what he thinks. Anyone else actually use this kind of thing in a project?...See MoreSmall Bathroom: porcelain that looks like marble
Comments (9)My daughter used Daltile’s Florentine Carrara porcelain tile in her small bathroom ( 76x61 plus tub alcove plus tub alcove)when she remodeled it several years ago. It is a subtle marble pattern. She used 24x24 on the small floor area and 12x24 tiles in the tub surround. You can definitely use larger tiles in a small space if you want. Here are a few in progress and finished photos to help you visualize how your space could look Daltile now has other marble look tiles that were not available at the time so you might want to look at their website. Good luck with your project,...See MoreRelated Professionals
