We have had 4 square meters of polished porcelain tiles laid in our bathroom. These ones from Homebase. The Website says they need sealing so I bought some LTP MPG sealer and applied it as per the instructions. When buffing, the surface turns to greasy, smeary mess - the transit wax problem?
My question is, how do I tell if there is transit wax? There doesn't seem to be any evidence of it on the tiles as they came out of the box.
I have scrubbed off the MPG and tried HG Power Cleaner to remove the wax on the advice of a local tile supply shop. I applied it liberally, undiluted, but after plenty of agitation using a green scouring pad there is no discernible difference between the laid tiles and those fresh out of the box. Should I be able to tell when the wax is gone?
I tested more MPG on the Power Cleaned tiles and the same greasy, smeary marks appear when buffing.
