The recommended method of finishing for terrazzo tile flooring is as follows:
  • Let the bedding mortar(mixture) set for 24 hours .
  • During this period no one should be allowed to walk on the tiles.
  • All the joints should be cleaned of the gray cement grout with a wire brush or trowel.
  • All the dust and loose mortar should be removed and cleaned.
  • Joints should be pointed with gray or white cement mixed with or without pigment to match the shade of the topping of the wearing layer of the tile.
  • If any tile is disturbed or damaged, it should be replaced, properly joined and polished.
  • The finished floor should not sound hollow when tapped with a wooden hammer.
