SPECIFICATIONS Collection Essential Subway Series Material Glazed Ceramic Size 3" x 6" (Standard Rectangular) Thickness 8 mm (approx. 5/16") Finish High-Gloss Weight Approx. 0.50 Lbs per piece Application Kitchen Backsplashes / Shower Walls / Accent Borders Look Classic / Clean / Timeless / Bright INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS ⚠️ CRITICAL: To achieve the signature "Subway" look, maintaining consistent spacing is vital. Because ceramic tiles can have microscopic size variances, we strongly recommend using 1/16-inch or 1/8-inch tile spacers to ensure your grout lines remain perfectly straight across the entire wall. Manufacturer Recommendations: Recommended Adhesive: Use a standard Type 1 Ceramic Tile Mastic for dry wall applications (backsplashes) or a Thin-set Mortar for wet areas (showers). Cutting: A standard manual "snap" cutter is sufficient for straight cuts, though a wet saw is recommended for intricate cuts around electrical outlets. FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS Is this tile "bright white" or "off-white"? Whisper White is a high-LRV (Light Reflectance Value) "Bright White." It is designed to match standard white porcelain sinks and toilets perfectly. Can I use this on a floor? No. This is a wall-grade ceramic tile. Its glaze is not rated for foot traffic and may become slippery or crack if used on a flooring surface. What grout color is best? For a seamless look, use "Bright White." For a vintage "industrial" look, choose "Platinum" or "Warm Grey" to highlight the brick pattern. PRO INSTALLATION TIPS The "Center-Point" Start: Always find the center of your wall and start your first tile there. This ensures that the cut tiles at both corners are of equal size, providing a symmetrical, professional finish. Mind the "Lipper": Use a small amount of adhesive on the back of each tile ("back-buttering") if your wall has slight bows. This helps keep the faces of the tiles perfectly flush under your kitchen under-cabinet lighting. Siliconized Caulking: Where the tile meets the countertop or the corner of the wall, do not use grout. Use a color-matched 100% silicone caulk to allow for natural house expansion without cracking your grout lines.
