Tile selection method

Home decoration must buy tiles, how to buy value for money, satisfactory tiles also have a certain knowledge, in general, the principle of buying tiles is: a look, two, three drops of water, four feet.

First, look at the appearance. The color of the tiles should be uniform, the surface finish and flatness should be better, the surrounding rules and the pattern should be complete. From the box, draw out four or five pieces to see if there are any defects such as color difference, deformation, lack of corners and less angles.

Second, listen to the sound. With hard objects tapping, the more crisp the sound, the higher the porcelainity and the better the quality. Can also be the left thumb, index finger and middle finger clip a corner of the tile, easy to hang down, with the right index finger hit the lower part of the tile, such as the voice clear, sweet ears for the top grade, such as sound boring, stagnation for the next product.

Third, dripping test. The water droplets can be on the back of the tile to see how quickly the water spreads after infiltration. In general, the slower the water absorption, the greater the density of the tile. On the contrary, the faster the water absorption, the denser the density, and the inherent quality of the former is excellent.

Fourth, the amount of feet. The higher the accuracy of the tile side length, the better the effect after paving. Buying high-quality tiles is not only easy to construct, but also saves man-hours and accessories. With a tape measure, there is no difference in the size of each tile, and the highest precision is the top grade.

In addition, the hardness of the tile was observed, and the ceramic tile had a good hardness, a strong toughness, and was not easily crushed. Scratches between the tile corners and tiles to see whether the broken pieces are broken or loose, whether hard, brittle, or soft, whether it is scratches or scattered powders. If the former is the top grade, the latter is the top grade. difference.

The criterion of whether the size is the key to judging whether the tile is good or bad is to use a tape measure or a caliper to measure whether the diagonal line and the four sides of the tile are uniform in size and thickness. The good tile has a crisp sound, indicating that the porcelain content is high. If the sound "squeaks" with a crack, it means there is a crack in the brick.

A good tile, the master installation is also convenient for construction, and the effect of installation is also standardized.
