(1) look at the appearance. The color of the wood grain ceramic tile should be uniform, better surface finish and flatness, surrounding rules and patterns should be complete. Take four or five pieces tile from a box  to check with color difference, distortion, lack of edge small angle and other defects.

(2) to listen to the sound. Light blow with a hard object, the more crisp sound, the higher the degree of porcelain, the better the quality. You could also use your left thumb, forefinger and middle finger to hang the corner of the folder tiles and easily in the lower right index finger tapping, if the sound is clear and pleasant that is the top grade, if sound dull stagnation cloud that is beneath contempt.

(3) drip test. Droplet water to see the speed of infiltration water spread out in the back of the tile, in general, the slower water sop, the greater the density of the tile; Conversely, the faster water sop, the greater sparse density, its inherent quality of the former is superior. The dirt capacity tiles is connected with water absorption. The same species,process and material, the lower the water absorption of ceramic products of the material, the higher temperature requirements firing. The better the tiles’ physical and chemical properties, the stronger the stain resistance is relatively.

(4) Measuring. The higher the accuracy of the tile side length, the better after paving is . It is not only easy to pave high-quality tile construction, but also can save hours of work and accessories. The neighboring size of each tile measuring with a tape should be no difference , high accuracy for the top grade.

(5) Hardness test. Good hardness, toughness, not fragile rotten for the top grade are the top grade tile. Take broken debris tile fragments angular mutual and scratches, see the crack, dense or loose, hard, brittle or softer, leaving scratches or loose powder, in the case of the former is that quality is the top grade, the latter is poor.
