    dampen porcelain tile/floor when laying ?

    You should see the looks and questions that I got from friends, family and others when they found out I was putting in a porcelain tile floor.

    It is, it works well. It has 4 different access points in the house. I wish it wasn't in my garage but that's where it was when we bough the house.

    PCMusicguy you are correct, the Eleganza is PEI4, I was originally looking at Emser (when I made this original post) and it is PEI 5. The Emser availability dried up and the price ended up being $11 per square foot so I went with the Eleganza. PEI4 is more than strong enough.

    Porcelain tile is as strong as it gets as for spillage, that's why they invented drop cloths

    I knew what I wanted with the floor, not so much with the walls.

    Gerald, my tiles are rectified and they are polished through body tiles. I believe we went with 1/8 but it may be 1/4 I'm not home to check. We used black grout I forget what type but I know it wasn't cheap.

    They are Eleganza Black and White they are 2'x2' tiles, I have a black border around the whole garage roughly 16 inches around. The were around $3.50 per sq foot. The shipping process was not great and I had a ton of waste (due to shipping, not over ordering). I also looked into Emser Times...
