Clarity Digital Imaging Clarity Digital Imaging is the newest technology for applying glaze and design to manufactured tile products. This technology creates more realistic visuals, improved color saturation, and fewer pattern repeats. The most common traditional glazing application uses rotocolor methods (rotating silicon drums are infused with liquid glaze that are rolled onto the tile creating the pattern and texture). This method creates a two dimensional visual and because of the method a pattern repeat can be more obvious and occur more often. Also the ability of the glaze to reach the surface edges and heavy textures can be a challenge. Clarity Digital Imaging is similar to high definition ink jet printing. High tech digital machinery controls every element of the application process. The glaze is applied in multiple layers using spray nozzles and offers ultimate precision and attention to detail. The ability to manipulate where the glaze is applied on each tile reduces the number of pattern repeats, and as a result, one product can have 40 to 60 different faces—resulting in up to 10× more graphic variation. The choice is clear, Clarity Digital Imaging by Shaw Tile & Stone. How Does Porcelain Tile Compare to Ceramic Tile?

POLISHED TILE TILE & STONE SEALING OVERVIEW POLISHED TILE SEALING OVERVIEW The dense, hard surface of porcelain has made polishing a viable alternative to a glazed tile. This means the tile can be fired, then polished to create a shine without using a glaze. The polishing process cuts into the surface of the tile leaving microscopic pinholes exposed which are prone to absorbing stains. Therefore, the polishing method requires the tile to be sealed, with the exception of a Nano sealed product.

The high surface sheen of nano tiles creates tile were to chip, the color and design below the surface are the same as a protective layer so dirt cannot penetrate the tiles and they are easier to top. This method allows the tile to be polished because the design runs keep clean. Nano method does not need to be sealed. deep enough into the tile. This type of tile must be sealed. Cleaning: The recommended cleaner for porcelain tile is soapy water. Acidic or alkaline cleaners can damage the sealer. Cleaning procedures and traffic patterns dictate the life of the sealer. Sealing is typically needed once per year. Test seal by dropping a bead of water on tile. If it spreads, sealer is working; If it absorbs into the tile, resealing is needed. shawfloors.com 08.08.2017 HS-152548-17 Polished Tile Bulletin v6.indd 1 8/8/17 2:42 PM 122 BACK TO TABLE OF CONTENTS

If such tiles are used as a walking surface where water, ice, oil, grease and/or other substances are present, such a condition could cause a reduction in foot traction and become unexpectedly slippery resulting in a fall and personal injury. See ANSI standard A137.1 section 6.2.2.1.10, available at www.tcnatile.com/sections6.2.2.1.10.html. - Water, oil, grease, etc. create slippery conditions. Floor applications with exposure to these conditions require extra caution in product selection. Not for use on ramps. - Since there is a shade variation on all natural products, the tile and trim supplied for your particular installation may not match these samples. Final selection should be made from actual tiles and trim and not from tile and trim samples or color reproductions. Manufactured in accordance with ANSI A137.1 standards.
