Tuscan Leveling System Kit Supplied by Pearl Abrasive Pearl Tuscan Kit Includes 200-piece Tuscan Caps, 500-piece Tuscan Straps, and a standard gun We will significantly assist you with the installation of stone and ceramic tiles. It is designed to create a virtual lippage-free installation with stone and ceramic tiles. The system interlocks the tiles, virtually creating a flat slab surface while the setting material is curing. Minimize the possibility of shrinkage or warping. There is no need to re-lift tiles to add more mud and the process of shimming tiles. Increase the speed of installation Features 2-piece system that virtually eliminates lippage during tile installation Passes standard industrial (TCNA Robinson) compression test Recommended for gauged tiles 12" or larger For tiles of uniform thickness only (gauged tile) Very easy to learn and use at any skill level Prevents tiles from moving while curing More profitable for the installer Re-usable caps Reduces installer fatigue/stress Virtually lippage-free mirror flat surface drastically reduces the need for grinding and polishing Each time a new bucket of straps is opened, they must be soaked in lukewarm water for 2 hours or hot water for 30 minutes before use. Soaking is one time only The nylon strap is designed to absorb moisture so it will stretch during installation. This strap is engineered in a way that as the mortar is drying, it pulls the moisture out of the strap, making the strap more brittle so that the strap can snap off cleanly after the setting material drying is complete
