Recommended uses

Floors, cladding, bathrooms, shower trays, mosaics, stairs, façades and pool surrounds with non-slip finishes.

Care and maintenance

Clean with water and pH-neutral detergents, drying with a soft cloth; avoid acids, bleach and abrasive products. A water- and oil-repellent treatment after installation reduces staining and should be renewed periodically in busy areas. Professional honing and polishing remove scratches and dullness.
