🛠️ Process for Laying and Grinding Black Terrazzo Tile Surface
Proper installation is key to achieving the refined, high-performance look that terrazzo is known for. Below is a step-by-step breakdown of how black terrazzo tiles are laid and finished for maximum durability and aesthetic appeal:1. Surface Preparation and Protection
- Ensure grid inserts are securely stabilized.
- Begin by sprinkling water for curing over 3–4 days before laying the surface mixture.
- Protect grid inserts from bending or damage throughout the installation process.
2. Laying the Cement and Stone Mixture
Color Application Sequence:
- Start with darker colors first, followed by lighter shades.
- Apply terrazzo to larger areas before borders to maintain uniform color and texture.
- Allow the first layer to set completely before layering additional cement-stone mixtures.
- Avoid mixing multiple colors at once to prevent contamination.
Mixing Instructions:
- Accurately measure all materials.
- Dry mix cement and pigment, then add stone chips and mix evenly.
- Add water last for a consistent 60mm mix.
- When using mixed stone sizes or colors, pre-mix thoroughly.
Bonding Layer Application:
- Apply a cement slurry bonding layer (same color as surface) with a 0.4–0.5 water-cement ratio before laying the surface.
- Spread the mixture 1–2mm higher than grid inserts.
- Roll, compact, and smooth with a trowel.
- If stone exposure is insufficient, manually embed more stone chips.
Alternative Method – Dry Stone Sprinkling:
- After leveling, sprinkle washed dry stones over 1/3 to 1/4 of the surface.
- Pat dry stones into the slurry, compact with a roller, and finish with a smooth trowel.
- Ensures strong bonding and a visually rich terrazzo surface.
3. Curing and Grinding Process
Surface Curing:
- No foot traffic immediately after laying.
- Begin watering after 24 hours.
- Standard curing time: 5–7 days, extended to 10+ days in colder climates.
Trial Grinding:
- Conduct a trial grind to verify stone adhesion.
- Begin full grinding only after approval.
- For larger projects, wait at least 15 days before grinding begins.
4. Grinding Timeline Based on Temperature
Avg Temp (℃) | Machine Grinding | Manual Grinding |
---|---|---|
20 – 30 | 2 – 3 days | 1 – 2 days |
10 – 20 | 3 – 4 days | 1.5 – 2.5 days |
5 – 10 | 5 – 6 days | 2 – 3 days |
