What kind of tile is Racing Green 2x18 Glossy Porcelain Tile?
We stock Racing Green 2x18 Glossy Porcelain Tile as porcelain, 2x18. It reads green. Shade variation is high, so order from one production run and dry-lay a few sheets first. Porcelain is ceramic fired denser and harder, so it absorbs almost no water and holds a cut edge around an outlet.

Planning the wall
What Racing Green 2x18 Glossy Porcelain Tile works out to on your wall, from its own published size.
| Size (inches) | Pieces per 10 sq ft | Grout line per sq ft |
|---|---|---|
| 2×18 | 40 | 6.7 ft |
Arithmetic on the published size; a straight grid layout. Herringbone and other patterns cut more pieces.
One size, 2×18: roughly 40 pieces per 10 square feet, with 6.7 linear feet of joint per square foot.
2×18 is large-format — any edge of 15 inches or more — and large-format tile needs a flatter wall than small tile does, so we check the wall before we quote it.
Counts are before cuts — outlets, window returns and the ends of a run all take pieces. The install itself, from wall prep to caulk, is on our backsplash installation page.

Racing Green 2x18 Glossy Porcelain Tile or Brickstone Red Brick 2x18?
Racing Green 2x18 Glossy Porcelain Tile and Brickstone Red Brick 2x18 are easy to confuse on a sample board: they share the same material, glaze type, certifications and size. What separates them:
- Measured off each swatch, Racing Green 2x18 Glossy Porcelain Tile reads #BDC4BC (light, near-neutral) and Brickstone Red Brick 2x18 reads #8C715D (mid, warm), so Racing Green 2x18 Glossy Porcelain Tile sits lighter than Brickstone Red Brick 2x18 on the wall.

What to expect once it is installed
The ratings that decide whether the finished wall matches the sample.
Shade variation: V3 — moderate variation
Pieces will differ visibly. That is what makes the wall look like stone instead of wallpaper, but it means judging it from one piece will mislead you.
Wear rating: PEI 3
On the industry abrasion scale of 1 to 5, this one sits at 3 — walls, counters and normal residential floors — the usual rating for a kitchen.
Certifications
This one carries Greenguard Indoor Air Quality Certified.
What to put next to it
Built from the color we measured off Racing Green 2x18 Glossy Porcelain Tile itself, not from its name.
Forget the name for a moment. The swatch measures #BDC4BC — light and near-neutral — which puts it nearest Greige in our pairing data. It sits close to neutral, which means it will take direction from the cabinets rather than fight them.
Cabinets
- Pure White — walls one step warmer than the cabinets so the white reads crisp. Against this surface it is a step lighter, which lifts the surface without washing it out classic
Countertop
- White Veined (Marble-Look) — Greige keeps the veined white from feeling icy — the counter reads like linen instead of a showroom slab, and fingerprints vanish into the warmth.. Against this surface it is a step lighter, which lifts the surface without washing it out current
Hardware
- Warm Brass / Satin Gold — Brass pulls the hidden taupe out of greige, and as the lacquer softens over the years the pulls just look more collected, never tarnished.. Against this surface it is close in weight, so the two will blend rather than contrast current
Flooring
- Natural / White Oak — Greige and natural oak share the same beige undertone, so the cabinets seem to grow out of the floor — a quiet trick that makes small kitchens feel seamless.. Against this surface it is close in weight, so the two will blend rather than contrast solid
