I believe everyone has had this experience. In the past, when laying ceramic tiles at home, due to the gaps in the tiles, white cement and caulking agent were simply used to fill the gaps. (Zhong Taojun’s own brain Let me add: Isn’t everyone like this? )
In fact, it is not like this. If traditional ceramic tiles are laid without beautiful seams, it will not take long for the gaps between the tiles to slowly turn yellow and then turn black. The gaps between the tiles will also become difficult to repair due to the accumulation of too much dust, dirt and hair over a long period of time. Cleaning is not only unsightly, but also easy to accumulate garbage that is difficult to clean, especially in the kitchen and bathroom, where you can clearly see changes.
In order to solve this problem, many people are now starting to use ceramic tile caulking agents. Ceramic tile caulking agents have powerful functions. They are not only waterproof, mildew-proof, and anti-fouling, but also rich in color, natural and delicate. , does not fade and has a strong decorative effect. Many owners often ask, is it necessary to use ceramic tile grouting agent? What's the difference? Zhongtao Jun will explain it to you in detail below. I believe you will understand it after reading it!
The following four major points will give you a thorough understanding of the advantages of Tile joints
1. Perfect joints and beautiful grouting make ceramic tiles more practical
After solidification, the surface is as smooth as porcelain, with high strength and wear resistance. Non-stick stains, beautiful seams of ceramic tiles have excellent self-cleaning properties, easy to clean, easy to wipe clean, can be scrubbed with ceramic tiles to avoid hiding dirt, and avoid cracks and mold. You must know that mold can harm human health.

2. The ceramic tiles have beautiful seams and are waterproof
In fact, the beautiful seams of ceramic tiles themselves are also moisture-proof and anti-penetration properties. Therefore, it can really make the ceramic tile seams "never turn black".
3. Ceramic tile grouting agent has a particularly strong decorative effect
The new seaming agent is composed of high-tech new polymer materials + high-grade pigments and special additives. It is different from white cement and colored caulking agents (dry powder cement materials + low-grade pigments) which are mainly composed of inorganic materials. It is made of high-tech new polymer materials + high-grade pigments and special additives. It's colorful. And most ceramic tiles have a smooth surface. If different tile beautifiers are used with different tiles, your home can instantly become more three-dimensional.
4. Inhibit bacterial growth
The beautiful seams of ceramic tiles not only make the overall effect of the house we decorate more beautiful, but also are moisture-proof and waterproof. Ceramic tiles without beautiful seams can easily hide dust and moisture can easily penetrate and cause bacteria to breed. On the contrary, the beautiful seams of ceramic tiles can inhibit the growth of bacteria. Such an effect of bacterial growth.
Having said this, I believe many people will ask, do all ceramic tiles need to be seamed? Wouldn't it be too wasteful to do so? Zhongtaojun will tell you the answer. The beautiful seams of ceramic tiles are suitable for kitchens and halls. Why kitchens and living rooms? See details below.
Kitchen: A holy place for making delicious food. Three meals a day are indispensable. Regular use will produce a lot of oil stains and seasoning residues. Therefore, the kitchen tiles must be beautifully seamed. Very important. Because the caulking agent is not only waterproof and mildew-proof, but also does not stick to oil and is resistant to scrubbing. Once the caulking is done in the kitchen, you don’t have to worry about the tile seams.The oil stains and dirt accumulated in the crevices are difficult to clean, and the dirty black crevices will not affect your appetite.
Bathroom: Although the bathroom is not large, it is the most frequently used place in the house throughout the day. Therefore, it is important to keep the toilet clean and tidy. This area is also the center of the entire house. In areas with the highest humidity, after using ordinary caulking agent to fill the joints, it is easy for the porcelain seams to collapse due to excessive water vapor, causing the ceramic tiles to become moldy and smelly. However, the ceramic tiles can avoid this situation and make the ceramic tiles more beautiful. Easier to clean.
So, before we do the ceramic tile joints, many owners ask: Do we need to use caulking agent to prime the ceramic tiles? In fact, it depends on the situation. The key lies in the size of the ceramic tile seam. If the seam is too wide, you need to fill the seam with caulking agent first and then apply caulking agent so that it looks good and is strong. If the gap is very small, you can apply caulking agent directly.
So, it is necessary to have beautiful seams on ceramic tiles!
