FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What is the best layout for 6x12 Ming Green tiles?
Because of its elongated shape, this tile looks stunning in a Herringbone pattern for a high-end designer look. It is also commonly used in a Brick (Offset) pattern for a classic feel or a Vertical Stack to make low ceilings feel much taller.
Does Ming Green marble vary a lot in color?
Yes. Being a natural stone, Ming Green has Moderate to High variation. You will see shades ranging from pale seafoam to deeper mint, often with white quartz-like veins. We recommend "dry-laying" your tiles before installation to ensure a balanced mix of tones.
What grout color should I use with Ming Green?
To keep the look fresh and airy, we recommend a Bright White or a Very Light Silver grout. White grout highlights the crystalline veining in the marble, while a light gray provides a subtle, soft contrast.
Can I use these tiles on a bathroom floor?
Yes. 6x12 marble tiles are suitable for residential bathroom floors. However, keep in mind that polished marble can be slippery when wet. Using a high-quality bath mat and keeping the floor dry is recommended.
Why should I use White Thinset for installation?
Ming Green is a slightly translucent marble. Using a gray thinset can "ghost" through the stone, making the beautiful green color look muddy or dark. Always use a white, polymer-modified thinset.
MAINTENANCE TIPS
• Seal Your Stone: Apply a high-quality penetrating sealer before and after grouting to protect the marble from moisture and oils.
• pH-Neutral Cleaning: Use only cleaners specifically designed for natural stone. Avoid vinegar, lemon, or bleach, as these will etch the polished surface.
• Buffing: Occasionally buff the tiles with a soft microfiber cloth to maintain the high-gloss crystalline shine.
