Tile Plaque 1 Light Owl

Carreau Plaquette 1 Clair Hibou should be laid with a flexible C2-grade tile adhesive, applied using the double-buttering method on both the tile and the surface. This technique, recommended by Carocim for every cement tile, avoids air pockets that would weaken Carreau Plaquette 1 Clair Hibou over time.

No, bleach must never be used on Carreau Plaquette 1 Clair Hibou: it attacks the pigments and the sealant of the cement tile, causing irreversible white staining. Use a pH-neutral soap and warm water instead to keep the light colour of this Carocim tile looking its best.

Yes, Carreau Plaquette 1 Clair Hibou does resist UV well, showing no marked fading of its light shade over the seasons, as long as the sealant is maintained regularly. Carocim systematically applies this anti-UV treatment to its cement tiles rated for outdoor use, and Carreau Plaquette 1 Clair Hibou is one of them.

Note: yes, Carreau Plaquette 1 Clair Hibou is a cement tile finished for outdoor use, so it suits a terrace. Its Carocim listing rates it for exterior use, which means bonding it onto a stable base with a narrow joint, then sealing it before the first rain.

The small irregularities on Carreau Plaquette 1 Clair Hibou come from its handmade production: every cement tile is pressed and dried by hand at Carocim, which creates slight differences in surface and light shade, unlike the uniformity of an industrial tile.
