TileFix Mix2Match Tile & Stone Repair Kit – Ceramic, Porcelain, Marble & Stone – 45 Color Formulas

First off, the results, as pictured, look really good for polished stone tile. I should note that I've been a professional traditional media artist for 20+ years, so working with stone patching color mixing and faux texturing wasn't too hard. If you read the a accompaying instructions you should be good. With that said, some notes; the black is super black, dilute it with water and use sparingly!! As well as most other colors. If you are a novice you should study basic color mixing first, particularly RGB method. The kit comes with many common stone colors if you dont feel like mixing the basics BUT if you want an exact match you will be doing a lot of trial an error and you will have to use the included red, green, and blues. The patching base compound in the tube is kinda minimal, only enough for about a square inch. As the instructions say, patch dark, then let dry, then texture with a lighter mix using a frialed cotton swab. You will need more cotton swabs than the kit has!! The compound looks lighter when wet but dries darker!! Do go light on the first pass The final lacquer coat leaves much to be desired. It comes with no polishing tools and if you have a perfectly flat stone floor tile to patch them you need to sand it afterwards. Overall it's a good kit but I think it needs more patching compound.

Followed the instructions and the color was off - 28 is not a big number for colors. Had to experiment a bit with yellow, tan and white (yes white makes a difference not just the amount of color). Apply then dry (use a hair dryer) because color changes as it dries adjust and try again. Final results were really good. A full vanity mirror fell leaving the floor with a number of pits the largest the size of a dime. When done can't see the repairs for 2 feet. The only way to see is to look at them at an angle (head next to the ground a few feet from the repairs) and the difference in reflection makes them look like smears. Cons The miking board is cardboard one use - next time get a bit of plastic

Worked nicely until there was a spill and water settled over top the counter unnoticed for a couple hours. The product softened again despite being allowed to dry for several days. When cleaned the repair pulled up.

I've actually purchased this product twice to make tile repairs. The color mixing instructions are easy and accurate. In my experience this product works better on larger cracks or holes and not as well on hairline cracks. It saved my tile in my living room after I dropped a heavy table and took a thumb-sized chunk out of it. I was able to patch the hole and it's still holding after a year. Very happy! You can see the repair in the closer photo but it's harder to see from a distance. You'd really have to look to notice it as you are walking through the room

Package has confusing / conflicting directions on how to blend the colors. But it's impossible to do that by eye because it darkens when drying. So the process involves mixing the paste with the color drops, then applying and using a hair dryer to dry it. Then when you realize it's the wrong color, you then have to go back and add drops to the remaining putty. Each cycle of this takes 15 minutes. Then, even when you find an acceptable color, there's no way to repeat it because the drops were added in a progressively smaller batch of putty. Next, there's no way to apply this to many small chips. It goes on like spackle with a wide plastic card. Good for a big chip or crack, but not pinhead size chips. Lastly, I really thought this was an epoxy type of product where it would harden rock solid. It's just a soft putty and then they want you to paint it with a lacquer at the end. Well, that won't hold up to floor traffic and mopping.
