As a rule, do you seal before grouting or after, neither or both? Tiles and grout both white. Cheers.

Last time i used these i sealed first and after

 

[J Sid]

As did I.
I have also had to seal before fixing.

Before and after here too. Hate doing them to be honest.

 

[Mr Tiler]

are these not already sealed up?

No mate. Sealing these is not the same as say polished porcelain.
These are created by over baking in production.
You seal to protect the biscuit from any bleed through the flawed glazing.
I usually seal before grouting and after fixing. I like to seal my grout too so they get a coating again when i do that.

 

[Mr Tiler]

so do you go over the tiles when sealing the grout? I thought it was just the joints that got sealed. the things that go on in my head lol

You can do it either way, but it's quicker to just seal the lot.
