Shiny versus Matte, Glazed
versus Unglazed, Wet versus Dry, Light versus Dark, Rough versus
Smooth, Hard versus Soft - there are many things to consider when
trying to better understanding ceramic tile.
There are many myths concerning slip-resistance of different
surfaces.
It is often thought that a matte glazed surface will be
slip-resistant. This is not true. Even rough glazed tiles can be
slippery when wet, if not treated with the "Safe Solution"
anti-slip treatment.
Everyone wants easy-clean tiles but they are willing to trade
some of the ease of cleaning for greater slip-resistance and
safety. Even to buy a slip-resistant tile initially is to trade
some of this ease of cleaning.
