Clear Glass Tile is certainly one of typically the most popular tiles among homeowners and interior designers who are working on a home backsplash, bathroom or swimming pool project. Because clear glass tiles are translucent - you will see through, they have a bright and rich look that opens unlimited possibilities in terms of design.
Although the meaning of clear/translucent glass is "allowing light to feed partially or diffusely", it doesn't imply that all clear glass tiles are transparent in a way that you will see, as an example, a thing or your hand behind it. Clear glass may be the material used to produce these tiles, but they are able to have color or not.
Back colored clear glass mosaic tiles are by far typically the most popular in the market. The tiles are made of clear/translucent glass usually from 4mm to 8mm thick, and they receive a coating/painting on the back during manufacturing, which will be what gives the color to the tile. Usually they are available mesh mounted on a fiberglass sheet or as field tiles such as subway
Stained clear glass tiles are made of clear/translucent glass which are stained during its manufacturing process and then cut into multiple pieces. In this case, you will see entirely through it even when it has a dark stain color, and that's the reason why they are not mesh-backed, otherwise you would start to see the mesh through the glass even with installed. Instead, they are mounted on clear-faced or paper-faced sheet.
Plain or non-colored clear glass tiles are made of clear/translucent glass and do not need color in it. Although word "plain" men's clear eyeglass frames can be used to describe these kind of tiles, they are extremely elegant and easy to work well with if you want to offer a special "touch" to a home backsplash, bathroom, and shower or swimming pool. Given that they don't have any color inside it and are totally transparent, they match any color from granite counters to kitchen cabinets and easily blend in to the environment.
Stained and Plain Clear Glass Tiles require more attention when installing. Because you will see what's on another side of the tile, you might wind up seeing the trail made by the trowel when the installer was butting the wall. So it is recommended to use a white adhesive such as mastic and also butter the back of the tiles. Ensure that you press the tiles firmly from the wall with a grout float and take a peek if you have any air bubbles after every piece has been placed so you might correct the situation before the adhesive dries. Definitely this sort of glass tiles takes additional time to put in but the effect is totally worth.
