Most homes have tile damage and most homeowners think that when cracks or chips appear the only way to fix the damage is to replace the tile.
The truth is, there is an easy way to repair hairline cracks, deep cracks, chips, and gouges in all types of tiles including ceramic, porcelain, granite, marble and stone.
With MagicEzy’s pre-colored **MAGICEZY TILE FIX™, it’s easy to fix even the finest hairline cracks or if you have deeper damage, use MagicEzy’s structural grade **MAGICEZY TILE FIX™ DEEP CHIP FILLER to firstly fill the area then after you’ve allowed the repair to dry for an hour or two, apply the appropriate shade of TILE FIX as a glossy topcoat.
**MAGICEZY TILE FIX™ comes in common tile colours including clear, white, metallic white, honey beige, red beige, chocolate, black, blue, yellow, gold, burgundy, and red.
Step1 – Clean the Damaged Area
For **MAGICEZY TILE FIX™ to strongly adhere it’s important that the surface is free of dirt and grease.
First – remove any ground-in grime or dirt that has been wedged inside the crack or chip. The easiest way to do that is to use a needle to scrape the repair.
Second – scrub the damaged area using a nail brush along with two drops of dishwashing detergent mixed with a cup of water.

Next – ensure that the area you want to repair is approximately body temperature. This provides the ideal environment for the repair to adhere and also dry quickly. If it’s colder than body temperature, heat it up for a few minutes using a hairdryer.
Step 3 – Apply the repair
