Bring a refined coastal aesthetic to your space with the Vanguard Series by Aquatica, a glass mosaic collection inspired by the movement, texture, and layered tones of natural water. Designed to capture the essence of modern aquatic design, this series features a versatile palette of coastal-inspired colors that add depth, brightness, and visual movement to both interior and exterior environments. Its balanced blend of contemporary style and approachable luxury makes it an ideal choice for homeowners, designers, and large-scale commercial projects alike.
Available in a variety of trending mosaic formats including penny rounds, 1" x 1", 1" x 2", and 2" x 2" patterns, the Vanguard Series offers exceptional flexibility for creating custom looks across pools, spas, bathrooms, showers, and kitchen backsplashes. The collection works seamlessly with today’s most popular design trends, including indoor-outdoor living, resort-inspired landscapes, spa-style bathrooms, and modern coastal interiors. Crafted for lasting performance in wet environments, these glass mosaic tiles deliver both durability and elevated visual appeal. Their reflective surfaces interact beautifully with natural light, creating subtle dimension and a clean, polished finish that enhances water features and architectural spaces alike. Whether used for a full glass tile pool, a kitchen backsplash, or a contemporary shower design, the Vanguard Series offers a timeless yet trend-forward solution for creating sophisticated, design-driven spaces.
Keeping your glass pool tile sparkling is simple with the right approach. Use a gentle, non-abrasive cleaner along with a soft cloth or sponge to avoid scratching the surface. Avoid harsh chemicals and abrasive scrubbing tools that can damage the tile’s finish. Maintaining balanced pool water chemistry and regular cleaning helps preserve the tile’s radiant shine. To prevent white mineral buildup (efflorescence), waterproofing the pool shell before tile installation is essential. AquaBlu offers effective waterproofing solutions such as Basecrete. For best adhesion and durability, we also recommend premium epoxy thinsets like Litokol Litoelastic and epoxy grouts such as Starlike Evo.
While smooth, polished glass tiles can be slippery when wet, many pool glass tiles feature textured or frosted finishes to improve traction. Grout lines also help provide grip. For vertical surfaces like waterlines and accent walls, glossy tiles are perfect, but for walkable areas such as sun shelves or shallow pools, consider matte or anti-slip tiles to enhance safety.

Yes! Glass pool tile is highly resistant to saltwater corrosion due to its impervious surface. To ensure long-lasting performance, use pool-grade glass tiles from reputable suppliers and follow correct installation procedures. AquaBlu carries an extensive range of durable glass tiles, including fun marine-themed mosaics to enhance your saltwater pool oasis.
Glass tile installation requires careful surface preparation and specialized materials. Professional installation is highly recommended to achieve the best results.

Following Tile Council of North America (TCNA) guidelines ensures a durable, beautiful finish.
Pool-grade glass tiles are engineered to resist UV rays and maintain vibrant color over time, preventing fading and discoloration even in intense sunlight. For guaranteed quality, always choose glass pool tiles from trusted brands and suppliers like AquaBlu.
