Purchase knowledge of glazed tiles
Glazed tiles mainly determine the quality by the quality of the glaze. Those with uniform, flat, smooth, bright, and consistent colors are the best products; those with grainy surfaces, irregular color, different color depth, uneven thickness, or even uneven concave and flocculent shape are the best products. In addition, the gloss glaze should be crystal clear and shiny: the matte glaze should be soft and comfortable.
When purchasing, you should pay attention to whether the ceramic tire size is standardized, whether the perimeter is flat, and whether the thickness is uniform. The thickness difference between the same specification of ceramic tiles should not exceed 2 mm, and the thickness of good floor tiles is generally more than 8 mm. Moreover, its glaze should be thick and smooth, and the color difference should be as small as possible.
Pay attention to specifications and sizes:
Specification sizes are unfair to construction and can better reflect the decorative effect. The specification deviation is small, and it is uniform after laying, the brick joints are straight, and the decorative effect is good. Products with a size error of more than 0.5 mm and a flatness of more than 0.1 mm will not easily increase the difficulty of construction, and the effect after decoration is also poor. Whether the size meets the standards can be judged by the goal. Place the brick on a flat surface to see if its four sides are exactly in line with the flat surface, and at the same time, see if the four corners of the tiles are all right angles. The Haobao ceramic tiles have no defects such as concave and convexity, bulging, and tilted corners. The error of side length does not exceed 0.2--0.3 mm, and the error of thickness does not exceed 0.1 mm.
Note grade mark:
Ceramic tiles are divided into five levels, including the difference between high-quality products, first-class products, second-class products, third-class products and other external products. Due to the large price difference, it is necessary to compare carefully. In addition, when purchasing, you should also pay attention to whether the logo, specifications, and color numbers of the tiles and packaging boxes are consistent, and whether the product certificate, trademark and quality inspection standards are clear.
Note hardness:
Ceramic tiles are best based on good hardness, strong toughness and not easy to break. They can be judged by “ see ” listen ” weigh ” weigh ” Look: Observe the fragments of the tiles. If the fracture site is fine, the color is consistent and there is no particulate matter, the tiles are the best. Listen: If you tap the middle and lower part of the tiles with your hand, if the sound is crisp and pleasant, it means that the product is relatively hard and is the best product; if the sound is dull and turbid, it means that the sintering degree is not enough and the texture is relatively poor.
Pay attention to anti-slip properties:
The anti-slip properties of ceramic tiles are very important. Generally, in places such as bathrooms and kitchens, tiles with anti-slip functions of the utensils should be selected. Sprinkle a little water on the tiles and gently wipe them with your feet. The more astringent you feel, the better the anti-slip.
Note the pattern:
Good tiles have clear and consistent colors, delicate and exquisite craftsmanship, no obvious color leakage, misalignment, broken lines or inconsistent depth.
Pay attention to the color difference: The color difference of
ceramic tiles is directly related to the decoration effect. Color difference may occur in not a batch of products, or in the same batch. Therefore, during the purchase process, each packaged product must be sampled and compared, and the ceramic tiles must be placed in the same variety and the same model of bricks, and the degree of color difference is observed. The color difference of good products is very small, and the color tones between the products are basically the same, the color difference is bright and even, and the color difference between the poor products is relatively large, and the color difference of the products is different.
Pay attention to the glaze surface:
Glazed tiles mainly determine the quality by the quality of the glaze surface. Those with uniform, flat, smooth, bright, and consistent colors are the best products; those with grainy surfaces, irregular color, different color depth, uneven thickness, or even uneven concave and flocculent shape are the best products. In addition, the gloss glaze should be crystal clear and shiny: the matte glaze should be soft and comfortable.
maintenance of glazed tiles
1. Apply liquid without throwing wax, liquid polishing wax or crystal surface treatment.
2. Usually, use electrostatic suction agent with dust collector for maintenance.
3. Ceramic tiles are often stained by greasy, water embroidery, soap scum, etc., especially the joints of the ceramic tiles are more likely to hide dirt, so the joints should be cleaned frequently.
Cleaning of glazed tiles
1. Use multi-functional detergent to clean with multi-functional, floor scrubber, and water absorber.
2. When wax is present, use waxed water to clean with multi-functional, floor scrubber and water absorber.
3. You should first use a toothbrush to dip a little detergent to remove dirt and gaps in glazed tiles. Then use a brush to brush a waterproofing agent in the gap, which will not only prevent water seepage but also prevent mold growth.
