'UV Sets in Maya'

If I perform a render, here's the image that I get (Fig.17).

But what if I want the tiles to repeat to create a smaller tile size for the wall? One way is to use the UV set Relationship Editor. Here I have two layouts for the same wall (Fig.18).

Now, If I link up the "Repeating" UV set to file1 (the colour map for the tile) and file4 (the bump map for the tile), and make sure that file3 (the graffiti colour map) is hooked up to Map1 UV set (the one that does not repeat) (Fig.19), we will get this when rendered – a repeating tile, but no repeat on the graffiti (Fig.20).
