Hi all, metal tile grouting and scratch problems? - TilersForums.com

[Vinny]

Hi, iv only just become a member and was wondering if anybody had any experience in using metal tiles? I am tiling curved walls around a jacuzzi in metal mosaics. They are very, very easily scratched! I need to keep my hands permanently clean as any adhesive on my hands scratch them! I need to find a suitable grout and would appreciate any tips about using and working with metal tiles. Cheers

Mapei do a super fine grout I belive.Your local tile giant should be able to get it for you.

Hi Vinny, welcome to the forum. Do the mosaics not have a protective film on each piece?
