Clear Glass Tile is among typically the most popular tiles among homeowners and interior designers who work on a kitchen backsplash, bathroom or swimming pool project. Because clear glass tiles are translucent - you will see through, they have a shiny and rich look that opens unlimited possibilities when it comes to design.
Although this is 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, like, an object or your hand behind it. Clear glass may be the material used to produce these tiles, but they could have color or not.
Back colored clear glass mosaic tiles are definitely typically the most popular in the market. The tiles are made of clear/translucent glass usually from 4mm to 8mm thick, and they be given a coating/painting on the trunk during manufacturing, which is what gives along with to the tile. Usually they're available mesh mounted on a fiberglass sheet or as field tiles such as subwayÂ
Stained clear glass tiles are made of clear/translucent glass which can be stained during its manufacturing process clear tortoise shell glasses and then cut into multiple pieces. In this instance, you will see all the way through it even if it includes a dark stain color, and that is the reason why they're not mesh-backed, otherwise you'd start to see the mesh through the glass even after installed. Instead, they're 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" can be used to spell it out these kinds of tiles, they're extremely elegant and easy to work with if you want to provide a special "touch" to a kitchen backsplash, bathroom, and shower or swimming pool. Simply because they don't have any color inside it and are totally transparent, they match any color from granite counter tops to kitchen cabinets and easily blend to the environment.
Stained and Plain Clear Glass Tiles require more attention when installing. Because you will see what is on one other side of the tile, you may end up seeing the trail created by the trowel when the installer was butting the wall. So it's recommended to utilize a white adhesive such as mastic and also butter the trunk of the tiles. Ensure that you press the tiles firmly contrary to the wall with a grout float and take a peek if you have any air bubbles after each piece has been placed so you may correct the situation prior to the adhesive dries. Definitely this type of glass tiles takes more hours to set up but the result is totally worth.
