Hi Prithiv
I generally use MYK brand, there are many other brands roff, saintgobain available in the market. Few brands have very less color collection.

Problem with joints in non water application area is maintenance. Usually people do wet wash with mob. This leads to deposit fine dust particle over the period of time. So paper joint would be better than 3 mm from maintenance view point.

Hi Viksat,
The problem is not with the gap, any tiles that are laid with paper joints will be filled with grout cement that is not stain proof.
You can see all the tiles laid with paper joint, joints turn blackish irrespective of color grout you use. Joining materials should be stain proof like your tile. In 3mm spacer we should use epoxy grout that is completely stain proof/ acid proof / discolor proof and much stronger than the tile.
The only problem with epoxy grout is that its expensive
