Thank you for your help! My kitchen flooring is matte. We ordered our backsplash in polished which I didn’t realize it was polished. Now I’m glad it is! 💕

Is it hard to keep your kitchen matte floor clean? What colour?

@stevemaderious217 Жыл бұрын

Thank you for giving actual opinions about do's and don'ts rather than just listing options like everyone else! You made our decision very easy so we're going to do porcelain wood-looking tiles with matte finish for the whole downstairs. One question, do you have any videos or suggestions regarding what shade of wood-looking tiles to use in the kitchen when the kitchen counters are white tile and the cabinets are the usual medium-brown/blond oak look that was so popular in the past? We're worried about picking the wrong color and clashing. Thanks again!

So thankful for your comment! I would go with a light version of wood tone trying to get a similar tone with the countertop. In this case, avoid warm or dark tones like mahogany, walnut, cherry, since your kitchen will look smaller and fuller. Instead, use neutral tones like Ash with sand stain, maple, country white, birch or taupe. This way, you can give the space a more fresh look and forget about that “old times” feeling.

@thedesigner1012 Жыл бұрын

Short term solution: You can do this by keeping the tiles super clean and dry. Dust and/or water make them more slippery. I don't recommend applying any chemicals because it could damage the tiles. So happy that you loved it!

@thedesigner1012 Жыл бұрын

Hello! Tiles come in different prices, and suprisingly, there are some that are not that expensive. My advices: (1) check for review if you're buying online. (2) Check every single tile as soon they deliver it to you, because the important thing here is that ALL of them should look the same. No cracks, no undertones, no stains.. Sometimes they lower their prices because the leftovers are all different. (3) Compare prices with other store. Hope everything goes well!

Lots of ways! Porcelain or ceramic tiles are very resistant to regular cleaning supplies. Mop and soap will do. You could try baking soda, vinegar only once, but my best recommendation is a steam cleaner. The best of luck!

Hello! I'll say it always depends on the type of room you're planning to build. I suggest a light matte tile for that size since it is more versatile with different materials and will make the room look bigger.

I have LVP and I would like to know if I can or how to make little shining? Thank you!

@thedesigner1012 Жыл бұрын

Suprisingly Yes, you could make you vinyl to shine a bit more. LVP flooring can loose its shine because of time, dirt, scratches or any external use. When this happens, the best way for this is to give the material a refreshment and of course, polish a little bit. Disclaimer, it will not look like a Polished mirror-like tile, but it will definitely shine a little bit. The way to do this is first Deep clean the floor. remove all stains possible, and all dirt. You could do this step with home remedies like baking soda, apple cider vinegar, baby oil, etc. and then apply a commercial vinyl polishing product like Murphy oil soap, Bona, Pine-Sol, Pledge.. There are many options to choose from. 😁

Thanks for this great video. I'm currently getting rid of the carpet in the bedrooms (thankfully) and I'm considering redoing the whole house's flooring. I like the minimalist big format/size matt (light greyish white concrete) tile look but the house isn't big and doesn't get much natural light. What would you suggest here? Would polished porcelain be a better option?

@thedesigner1012 Жыл бұрын

Congratulations on that renovation! I think you're choosing right! If the space isn't big enough you definitely need a light tone whether it is matte or polished tile. The best polished option would be a white marble-like tile. Polished tiles help a lot if you want to achieve a luxurious look, more if it is a big space. Stick to the light greyish white concrete tile 😉

If you chose matte, is it possible to make that finish look glossy later?

@thedesigner1012 Жыл бұрын

Great question. There is no official way to turn one Matte to glossy but I guess you could apply some sort of epoxy or resin on top to make it look glossy, but I suppose it could be a complicated work since the some tiles has its roughness and you’ll need a lot of material to cover it. It’s an unusual process but it can be done. I would recommend instead installing glossy tiles on top of the old ones if removing the matte tiles is not an option.

My pleasure, Glossy is the final top layer of the tile which is transparent shining. Howevr the polishing the the final mechanical surface process which makes tiles shines like meror. So not every Gloassy it a polished. And not every polished is a glossy. Take for example you can have a Glossy polished tile shich is the most shining tile you can get. And you can have a just glossy tile with no polish. Polished might be a Lappato, technical tiles, full body tile or even Glaze poish...

@thedesigner1012 Жыл бұрын

Thanks for the clarification. I guess I put both terms in the same category refering its shine. I understand that the gossiness can come from a polishing action, but of course not every glossy finish had a polished action.

@barakobamadubai Жыл бұрын

The polishing action technically not tlrefered to as Glossiness. Glossiness is only the final top coat which is glossy (exactly like the gloss of lips). Polished is the miror action creating a reflective surface. You welcome dear
