Novolistel® XS is an aluminum prole with thin visible side
to be installed in several applications. It stands out for its
versatility and appearance, giving the ceramic installations a
smart and delicate nish. It is available in natural aluminum
and in anodized nishes (matt silver, bright silver).

Novolistel® 3 XS is the most versatile prole in the markets. It can be installed as:
- Decorative listello.
- Edge protector.
- Flooring separator.*
- Stair nosing* or nishing edge (countertops, frame...).
Novolistel® 3 XS is a prole made by extrusion of aluminum. The anodizing process improves the co-
rrosion resistance, mechanical resistance and appearance of proles. It has the quality seal Qualanod,
which guarantees the quality of the process and the resulting proles. This seal regulates several tests:
appearance and color, thickness measurements, sealing and impregnation control, abrasion r esistan-
ce, lightfastness, acetic saline chamber and nitric acid immersion.
The natural nish has no surface treatment so is less resistant to corrosion and scratching. It is not
recommended installing natural nishes without the application of an additional protection.
Aluminum has excellent chemical, physical and mechanical properties. It is lightweight, tough, ductile,
malleable and highly durable

1. First spread a big amount of thin-set mortar on the surface to be tiled and then tile it up to the
approximated height where you’ll place the listello.
2. Place the tiles in the end of the next row, aligning them with the previous tiles. Then place the pro-
le aligned to them, embedding the anchoring wing between the wall and the tiles. Press the prole
to ensure the thin-set mortar passes through the holes of the anchoring wing.
3. Place the remaining tiles, pressing softly to get an optimal adhesion.
4. Then, continue tiling the wall up to the desired height.
5. Finally, clean the leftover material and let dry.
1. Spread a big amount of thin-set mortar on the surface to be tiled.
2. Align the prole with the corner and press it so the thin-set mortar passes through the holes of the
anchoring wing.
3. Place tiles on the xing wing and press them to get an optimal adhesion.
4. Continue tiling the wall.
5. Finally, clean the leftover material, remove the protective lm if necessary and let dry.

As a ooring separator
1. Spread a big amount of thin-set mortar on the surface to be tiled.
2. Then, place the prole and press it so the thin-set mortar passes through the holes of the anchoring
wing.
3. Place a tile on the anchoring wing and press it to get an optimal contact with the thin-set mortar.
4. Repeat the the previous step by placing tiles both sides the prole until the installation is complete.
5. Finally, clean the leftover material, remove the protective lm if necessary and let dry.
* If you are planning on polishing the oor, install the prole slightly below the tile.

Cleaning and maintenance
The proles should be cleaned periodically with a soft cloth. If you use a neutral liquid cleaner, you must
rinse the prole with cold water and dry to remove excess moisture.
You can clean the anodized nishes, if dirtiness persists, with a suitable slightly abrasive cleaning pro-
ducts or with specic metal cleaners. The lacquered nishes are more delicate and must be cleaned
with neutral detergents using soft cloths with no abrasive particles that could damage the surface
treatment. You can obtain a polished nish in natural nishes by using specic metal cleaners such as
magic cotton or generic polishers.
In all cases the steel wool, abrasive cleaners, souring products as well as strong acids (hydrochloric
and perchloric),strong bases (caustic soda or ammonia) or carbonated solutions are not recommen-
ded. Citric acid is not recommended because disolves the protective layer of the surface of aluminium.
Waxes, petrolatum, lanolin or similar substances are not appropriate. Solvents containing haloalkanes
(hydrouoroether and chlorinated solvents) and curing accelerators containing chlorides should not be
used (use special accelerators free of chlorides).
