FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What is the best way to cut Aether Crystal Ocean tiles?
Because this mosaic contains glass/crystalline components, we recommend using a wet saw with a high-quality diamond blade specifically designed for glass. To avoid chipping, cut slowly and ensure the blade is sharp.
Can this mosaic be used inside a swimming pool?
The Aether Crystal Ocean is ideal for water features and pool waterlines; however, please verify the specific adhesive requirements for submerged installations. Its chemical resistance makes it excellent for waterline "splash" zones.
What grout color should I use to match the "Ocean" look?
For a seamless, watery look, we recommend a translucent or "Stardust" grout with a hint of shimmer. Alternatively, a cool light gray or crisp white grout will make the individual crystalline shapes pop.
Does this tile require sealing?
If the mosaic is 100% glass/crystalline, it is non-porous and does not require sealing. However, if it is a stone-glass blend, we recommend a sealer to protect the natural stone portions.
Is it suitable for high-heat areas, like behind a stove?
Yes, it is an excellent choice for a kitchen backsplash. It is heat-resistant and the smooth surface allows for easy cleanup of cooking splatters and grease.
MAINTENANCE TIPS
• Use a standard glass cleaner or a mild, pH-neutral soap for daily maintenance.
• Avoid abrasive scrubbers (like steel wool) which could scratch the polished surface.
• Use a soft microfiber cloth to buff the tile and maintain its "liquid" shine.

Natural Stone Care & Maintenance Guide
Daily Cleaning & Surface Care
- Use pH-Neutral Cleaners: Only use cleaners specifically formulated for natural stone. Avoid vinegar, lemon juice, bleach, or generic "all-purpose" sprays, as acidic substances will chemically etch (dull) the marble surface.
- Soft Application: Use a clean microfiber cloth or a soft mop. Never use abrasive scrubbing pads, steel wool, or vacuum attachments with "beater bars" that can scratch the polished finish.
- Immediate Spill Response: Natural stone is porous. Blot spills immediately with a clean paper towel; do not wipe, as this spreads the liquid.
Long-Term Protection
- Professional Sealing: A high-quality penetrating sealer must be applied upon installation. For high-traffic areas or kitchen backsplashes, re-sealing is recommended every 6–12 months to maintain a moisture barrier.
- Heat & Acid Protection: Always use coasters, trivets, and placemats. Marble is sensitive to thermal shock and acidic reactions from wine, coffee, and citrus.
- Debris Management: For floor installations, use walk-off mats at entrances. Dust-mop frequently to remove sand and grit that act as abrasives underfoot.

We used these tiles around the pool and outdoor seating area, and the performance has been excellent. The surface feels solid and safe, while the look remains clean and premium even under constant sun and water exposure.
