Splitface

[dboden]

I have just got a small splash back job, but the tiles are EMC ceramic split face natural stone effect. (about 250x150??)
Who has used these before? Any tips??
Do you usually lay theses out half bond?
Usual 2mm spacers?
How do you get tho grout off?
Will they cut with my sigma dry cutter?

Thanks Dave

Have you a link....

No.. I cant find them online.. I have only seen them when i quoted..
just a real rough stone type textured surface, but they are ceramic.

If they are ceramic they shouldn't be a problem

I will ask at EMC if they have any tips.

Here's a link to a Google search, looks similar to something we fixed earlier this year, no spacers no grout, looks like interlocking but butted up, done and dusted.

Hope that helps.

And no, you'll need a wet cutter.
