ONYX SUBWAY TILE PROPERTIES

Onyx is a traditionally jet-black form of quartz, though it is available in an array of colors making it perfect for interior design. When reviewing onyx subway tile properties, it is easy to see why so many people favor onyx in the form of tiling. 

Onyx is notoriously hard and provides excellent durability. Therefore, it can be confidently used across a wide range of environments including contemporary bathrooms and kitchens. Onyx offers varied lusters though it is typically shiny, especially when polished. 

Because onyx is a porous stone, it requires sealing for use in the home. This will help to prevent the tile from being damaged due to contact with water, for example, if you plan to use it in the bathroom or near a sink.

HOW TO MATCH ONYX SUBWAY TILES TO GROUT

Grouting is a crucial part of the tiling process and can significantly alter the way your tiles look. If you want to match grout to your tile, we recommend getting test samples to use and sticking to neutral colors. You should also consider whether you want a sanded or unsanded grout.

HOW DO YOU CLEAN ONYX SUBWAY TILES?

Use a soft brush to remove any dirt from in between the tiles and the tiles themselves. Once you have done this, mix a solution of dish soap and water together and using a microfiber cloth, gently clean each tile. You can also apply a layer of stone sealer to keep the tiles fresh and clean for longer after they are cleaned.
