* L340 Blavet Blanc Large field tile sizes (12x12”, 12x24”, 6x18”, 18x18”) come pre-sealed with VH72 solvent based sealer to protect
the stone from staining at time of installation and grouting. Re-seal large field tile sizes as needed depending on traffic.

When re-sealing Blavet Blanc, only use these recommended products:

• Manufacturer: DuPont; Sealers: BulletProof®, Impregnator Pro®, Enhancer Pro™

• Manufacturer: Aquamix; Sealers: Ultra-Solv, Pro-Solv

Refer to Dupont and Aquamix websites for more information on the above products.

** L346 Moselle Gris and L351 Sormonne Brun honed finish may present some granular areas that are a natural characteristic
of the stone. These are created by soluble salts present in the body of the stone, which come to the surface while the stone
undergoes the natural drying process. These grainier areas do not affect the general look and performance of the stone,
and the salt will slowly be removed by regular foot traffic. Should the customer desire to eliminate these salt deposits,
Aquamix Eff-Ex can be used prior to sealing the product. Ensure to test a small area to determine the desired results.
Refer to Aquamix websites for more information on the recommended product.

*** A grout release is highly recommended prior to grouting to facilitate the cleaning of the scraped and brushed Hex.
Some grout release products may discolor or affect light stones. Make sure to test the product in a small area.

cause staining in some instances. Water-jet Finish: Gives a more uniform, textured finish and allows more of the natural color to
show.
Acid Sensitivity: The use of natural stones in environments where acid exposure is likely requires
a proper stone selection to avoid attack to the stone. Most notably, the calcium carbonate and Sandblasted: Coarse plane surface produced by blasting an abrasive, allowing a fine-textured

will usually manifest itself as a “dull” spot within the surrounding glossy surface.
Natural Cleft: A cleavage face formed when the stone is split into any thickness.
Delamination: Many stone varieties have pronounced bedding planes, along which a predetermined
“rift” exists. “Rift” is defined simply as the direction along which a stone is most easily split. Bedding Tumbled: Method of putting tiles in a mixing container with sand and rotating them, allowing the

Lot Specific Issues: Being products of nature, stones are subject to the variability of any product
harvested from nature. Some stone deposits are remarkably uniform through hundreds of feet of
depth times vast lateral distances. There are cases of replacement pieces having been quarried
to repair or extend building decades old, and the replacements matched the existing nearly
seamlessly. In contradiction to these examples, there are quarries where the inter-block, and even
intra-block variability are so great that a given lot of material cannot be matched one month later.
In such cases, extreme care is necessary to ensure that adequate quantities are ordered, including
requirements for waste, breakage, and attic stock.
Lippage vs Grinding in Place: Lippage in stone tile flooring is accentuated from what would be
perceived in a ceramic tile flooring for several reasons. Natural stones tend to be installed with
tighter joints, they typically have extremely slight, or no chamfer at their edges, and many natural
stones are provided in a very high gloss, polished surface finish. Industry standards limit lippage
between adjacent units of smooth finished natural stone flooring to 1/32”, which is approximately
the thickness of a standard, plastic credit card. When this is not achieved, there is the option
of grinding the stone tiles in place to eliminate the lippage. This work is to be done by skilled,
experienced technicians, as care must be taken to avoid a “wavy” looking finished floor. In some
cases, installing contractors will plan to grind the finished floor regardless of the lippage amount,
usually per the requirement of the client. Lippage should still be minimized to the extent possible
during installation to avoid extremely thin stone sections after grinding.
Requirement for Pre-soaking: Installing high porosity stones in hot, dry climates often requires
that the stone be pre-soaked prior to installation. Failure to do so can result in the stone wicking
excessive amounts of water out of the setting bed, leaving the bed with inadequate water to
accomplish proper hydration of the cements.
Translucence: May occur in some white or very lightly colored marbles and onyxes having a crystal
structure that will transmit light to varying degrees depending upon stone thickness and finish.
Translucence can be an aesthetically intriguing decorative attribute.
Mixing Types of Materials: Designs calling for a mixture of stones with different physical properties,
while aesthetically interesting, can give rise to problems of wear and of maintenance, mainly on
floor areas. Re-polishing will pose problems, should that need arise. The Specifier should be aware
that mixing types of stones means there will be different abrasion resistance levels as well as
different densities of stones that must be considered in the long term maintenance of the stone
and its wearability.
Yellowing: A stone may turn yellow due to dirt or soap scum set in it. Waxes and other types of
coatings can also yellow with age. Certain stones will naturally yellow with age as a result of
oxidation of the iron within the stone. This is especially true with white marbles.
Rusting: Some stones, and specifically slates, contain deposits of minerals that can react to
moisture. Stone bleeding or rusting is a common example of this. Caution should be used in
installations where slate would be exposed to standing, run off water or too much humidity. As
water works its way through the stone, if the stone contains iron oxide, some of it may liquefy. This
iron will eventually surface through the stone and deposit itself on the surface of the stone. The
rust will return over time and may have to be cleaned periodically.

GROUTING:
If necessary, prior to grouting apply an appropriate breathable stone sealer or grout
release to the tile to facilitate cleaning and for protection against staining from setting
materials and contrasting color grouts. Grout joints should be packed full and free of all
voids and pits. Excess grout should be cleaned from the surface as the work progresses,
while grout is fresh and before it hardens. No acids should be used for cleaning. Prior
to grouting, test an area to make sure the surface does not scratch or stain during
grouting. Follow manufacturers’ recommendation for the use of sanded or unsanded
grout, which is determined by the width of the grout joint. For wider grout joints use a
grout bag to fill joints and strike joints after they have become finger-print hard.

SEALING:
After the stone is installed, grouted, properly cured, and clean, seal the stone
with an appropriate high quality breathable stone sealer to minimize water
absorption, efflorescence, and potential staining. If necessary, apply an anti-
graffiti coating that is compatible with the stone. Follow sealer manufacturers’
installation instructions and reseal the tile as necessary to provide adequate
protection from staining and spalling.

PROTECTION:
The tile installer shall take precautions to protect the finished work
from damage by other trades and traffic. Do not allow construction
traffic on fresh tile or grout joints. Allow the grout to cure for
a minimum of 7 days before aggressive use or steam cleaning.
