13 Saltillo Tile Repair Kit - DIY TerraCotta Tile Filler - (Red-Brown, 1 Pound)

I used this in 2023 to patch the edge of a broken saultillo tile. It’s in the direct walk path and full sun. It’s held up perfectly.

Had a 1.5 inch irregular hole in clay pot. Followed directions and completed the job. You cannot even tell where the repair was performed.

This product worked well to try to reduce the appearance of cracks that we had in our terracotta tile. relatively easy to mix up and use

Not worth the very high price demanded for this product. As others have said, the instructions are very poor so you just end up mixing up the entire batch. The product becomes unworkable extremely fast and frankly looks incredibly ugly. I think filling the small holes in my floor with plain old cement would have been a better choice

Repaired many serious cracks running through our Saltillo Tiles better known as Mexican Tiles with Red-Brown color. However you may have to mix some liquid cement coloring of your choice to match as best as you can. You need to be a real artist. Also just use a bottle of concrete bonding adhesive instead of water to moisten it, much easier than their prescribed method. Two applications works best as the first application dries and sinks down a bit so the second application fills it in best and level. After drying It remains quite visible against the actual tile because it is flat finish, until you seal the flooring with a nice gloss coat, then it blends in better and is hardly noticeable as it takes on the same sheen. Have to be careful with color matching as the closer you get to the tile color the less visible it will be. Overall pretty good, and it's ready mixed and gives you a starting point for your application.

The good: The product did fill in some deep pits in our Saltillo tile The bad: 1) Color is nothing close to the actual tiles. The "red-brown" is just dark brown and "yellow" is much too light. The product highlights the pits and cracks. Mixing to match is impossible when the base colors are so far off. 2) The product is useless for shallow chips and cracks. After thoroughly drying, it just wiped out of any hole wider than the depth.

My intent was to patch a 3/4” hole in a tile in my front porch. What I ended up with was a rough patch needing some know how on how to smooth it out at the end. It will do ok as the color matches the other tiles perfectly. The product needs to be easier to use, like the better spacklings available now, to justify its high cost.

So far, this product is fantastic. I used it to patch an eroded area on a reddish/pink Saltillo tile on an outdoor patio. Apparently, water dripped from an older raingutter and the drops eroded a 4” corner section of the tile. The product was easy to mix and smooth on after I cleared the area of dirt and loose debris. The color is spot on and I honestly couldn’t tell which tile I repaired!!
