    Wet film gauge for liquid tanking products

    FYI for those tilesetters that are starting to use tanking products. It's important to know the manufacturer's requirements for wet film thinkness. A cured film of the tanking product that is too thin isn't necessarily waterproof. I just got a new gauge that is set for the brand we use...

    Sealing Porcelain Mosaics

    When I had my 600mmx600mm black porcelain tiles the advice I had was to seal them. I am about to put up some porcelain mosaics. Do these need sealing like the floor tiles? Will I have a problem wiping off the adhesive/grout if I do not?
