Daltile Stone Attache - Ambassador - Wanderlust White - 12 x 24 - Light Polished - AM36RCT1224LP
Daltile Ambassador Wanderlust White 12 x 24 is a ColorBody porcelain tile modeled after fine-grained Swiss quartzite. Its a soft white and pale cream palette with subtle horizontal mineral movement gives the surface a directional stone character rather than a uniform solid-color appearance. The product can coordinate across floors, walls, backsplashes, and countertops in residential or commercial projects when the selected finish and installation conditions are appropriate.
The 12 x 24 rectangle can run in straight, stacked, or limited-offset layouts. For staggered brick-joint patterns, Daltile states that overlap should not exceed 33 percent. The Light Polished finish adds a mild reflective quality while retaining the directional quartzite pattern. It is a better fit for dry interior surfaces where the added sheen is wanted, and it requires more caution where water or other contaminants may create a slippery condition.
Format, Performance and Visual Planning
This tile is 5/16 inch thick and is packaged at 15.12 square feet with 8 pieces per carton. Ambassador carries high V3 shade variation, so color and graphic movement will vary noticeably from piece to piece. Blend material from multiple cartons and review the layout before installation to distribute lighter, darker, and more strongly grained pieces.
Installation and Use Considerations
- ColorBody porcelain construction with a quartzite-inspired stone look.
- Nominal 12 x 24 field-tile format in a light polished finish.
- Water absorption is listed below 0.5 percent; chemical resistance is listed as resistant.
- Daltile reports a Mohs scratch-hardness result of 8.0 and breaking strength above 275 pounds.
- Use latex-modified thin-set and follow Daltile large-format tile guidance.
- Plan a 1/8 inch grout joint, with wider joints or added limits for modular and staggered layouts as required.
The light color shows dark debris more readily than deeper tones, so routine cleaning matters in busy entries. Confirm the finish, DCOF suitability, substrate preparation, movement joints, and setting materials for the exact application before ordering.
