MSI Durango Cream Splitface 6x24 Panel

Product Overview

MSI Durango Cream 6" x 24" Natural Travertine Splitface Ledger Panel

Infuse your home with the rustic elegance of the MSI Durango Cream Ledger Panel. Crafted from genuine Travertine, this stone is characterized by its "peaches and cream" color story—a soothing blend of beige, light tan, and warm cream tones.

The Splitface finish highlights the natural, unrefined character of the travertine. By hand-splitting the stone along its natural layers, a jagged, high-relief surface is created that produces deep shadows and organic highlights. The 6" x 24" interlocking panels are designed for a "dry-stack" look, meaning they fit tightly together without the need for grout, resulting in a seamless, professional stone wall that looks like it was built by a master mason.

Installation & Handling Guidelines

• Thinset Choice: Use a White polymer-modified Large Format Tile (LFT) mortar. White thinset helps maintain the brightness of the cream tones and ensures a strong bond for the heavy panels.

• Corner Finishing: For a professional look around 90-degree corners, always use the matching Durango Cream L-Shaped Corner Pieces.

• Maintenance: Use a vacuum with a brush attachment to remove dust from the crevices. For exterior walls, a gentle spray from a garden hose is usually enough to keep it clean.

Care & Maintenance

Use a cleaner appropriate to the listed material and follow the manufacturer’s maintenance instructions. Test any cleaner or sealer on a spare piece first.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this look "yellow" in person? Durango Cream is a true neutral beige. Under cool LED lighting, it looks more like "Almond" or "Sand." Under warm incandescent lighting, the honey-gold undertones become more apparent, giving it that classic Mediterranean glow.

Can I use this for a kitchen backsplash? Yes, but keep in mind that the splitface texture is very porous and jagged. We recommend sealing it with a high-quality impregnating sealer to make it easier to clean if food or grease splashes onto it.

Is it okay for a shower wall? Stacked stone is generally not recommended for the inside of a shower because the uneven crevices can trap soap scum and moisture, leading to mold issues that are difficult to scrub away. It is better suited for the dry areas of the bathroom.
