Blue granite pools- What water tile did you use?
Comments (13)We chose NPT Silverstone Ocean. I wanted something that would blend almost seamlessly with our Blue Granite Pebble Sheen. I looked at Tondela Blue (our second choice) and a couple beige/cream/natural color tiles but I kept coming back to not wanting a line of demarcation between the water line and the pebble. Our pool isn't to the tile stage yet (fricken fracken rain) but here's a link to a post that shows the Silverstone Ocean. Look at the third photo down - it shows the blue, gray, cream and a little brown tones in the tile. It matches the sample of Blue Granite beautifully. The tile, in person, has a very subtle sheen to it - lovely. I hope it looks as gorgeous in my pool someday as it does on my patio table.

Comments (6)Guest bathroom shower surround, glossy white tiles, "regular" TEC grout, 2008 I think. MB and hall bathroom tub surrounds, glossy white tiles, TEC XT grout, 2011. No issues. The XT grout doesn't require sealing, but can be, using a solvent based sealer. We have moderately hard water. We wipe down the tub surrounds with a microfiber cloth after showering (to prevent water spots on the glossy tile). I clean the bathrooms pretty much weekly. I spray the tub surrounds with 7th Generation disinfecting bathroom cleaner spray. Let sit a few minutes, and wipe dry with a microfiber cloth. Tile and grout look as they did when first installed....See MoreContemporary bathroom -- what tile to use in shower & floor?
Comments (7)You haven't been very specific about your own tastes in color or how much or little "action" you want to see in the tile. That's probably why people haven't chimed in by now as there could be thousands and thousands of choices that would meet these vague criteria. One of your challenges with tile might be that you are looking at samples, when it might be more helpful to look at pictures of completed bathrooms as it's sometimes hard to visualize from just tile samples. Here is a link to about 800,000 bathroom photos here on Houzz: [Bathrooms[(https://www.houzz.com/photos/bath-ideas-phbr0-bp~t_711) When you go to the link, you can start filtering this mass of photos according to the choices on the left side....See MoreAlaska white granite in bathroom?
Comments (2)can you post pics of the granite remnants? and your tile... and the colors of paint you are considering? Most of us won't google for pics to see what you're talking about. We're lazy and visual and want to see them posted here, lol....See Moretj_shopper Eng
