Having tiles untold bathrooms I always do the floor LAST this saves dropping tiles etc on to the nice new expensive tile. However, when tiling the walls first leave out the bottom row of wall tile (here you can place your straight edge datum, put in the floor tile then set that last row of wall tile and leave a 1/8" gap between the floor and wall tiles and fill with same water proof grout as the floor tiles have
You can. It is less gritty but it works. Edit - While this is true, it's important to understand the wall grout is designed for thinner grout lines, so if you use it on the floor, make sure your grout lines are thin. Otherwise, the grout will crack.
That would depend on whether they are ceramic tiles or more vinyl tiles.
Can you and should you are two different things. You could, but you wouldn't be happy with your results. It's always best to remove all old floor covering prior to installing new ceramic tiles. Whether you buy expensive tile or find cheap ceramic tile for sale, you always want a clean and solid surface to start with.
I need to know how to produce ceramic tiles. specially, the updated technology of kilns of single firing ceramic tiles. Need to know how to solve the problems.
Ceramic tiles have a grout "gap" but vinyl tiles shouldn't have a gap.
Color of what grout lines? I wouldn't grout colorant (only aquamix) works good for that if grout is not sealed.A far as ceramic tiles go Ive never seen a kind where acid will do anything good.
What is composition of cement and any other metrial for grouting on floor ceramic tiles.
Ceramic tiles are normally laid on a cement base. If the floor has any flexibility at all, the tiles will wind up cracking. But if you do have to install tiles on top of wood, then yes, the wood has to be sealed because the grout is mixed with water, which can damage unsealed wood.
No it shouldn't, but you should still grout your tile.
2880 exactly, but if this is ceramic tiles you have to account for grout lines. extras would be recommended
First you have to pull up the old flooring. Once you have the old flooring up you have to put the tile glue on the floor, and place the tile on top of it. Then you have to grout in between each of the tiles. When you get to the edges you will have to cut the tiles to fit.
You can do it either way, however, you'll find grouting and cleanup easier if you do the walls first, including grout, before you start on the floors. This eliminates any mess from wall mortar or grout falling on your new tile floor. It also eliminates any risk of breaking floor tiles if you drop wall tiles on the floor.
Floor tiles are tiles made for use on a floor. They can be made of ceramic, terra-cotta, linoleum, vinyl and other materials. Ceramic tiles are a type of tile made from hardened materials (like clay). People put ceramic tiles everywhere - around the bathroom, kitchen, pools, etc.

Grout should usually be white or contrast with the tiles, but it truly depends on your preferences.
The difference between ceramic and porcelin floor tiles is ceramic tyles are make of ceramic and porcelin tiles are made of porcelin. They both come in various sizes and styles. Ceramic tyles are usually better for floors and porcelin tiles are usually better for walls and showers.
