Hi Dave, please could you advise if this would be (and if not which would be?) the best Lithofin product to seal a tiled kitchen floor which has unglazed ceramic, stone effect, floor tiles. They were external tiles, chosen for their extra grip for a young handicapped child who is unsteady on his feet, however they soon show the dirt and need scrubbing. Thanks!

Hi robwild..

Have you any pics or a tile name..?

 

[robwild]

Wow, that was quick! Regret that I can't provide a link to the tile (as the one I have no longer works) I have pics but not sure how to get them to you. Please advise.

They look like Vitra matt finish glazed porcelain tiles.. no sealer required.

Get some good cleaner and that will help keep them tip top..

This one is good gear. i recommend it to my customers when needed.

Hi Dave, thanks for this. Apologies for the delay in replying, but I noticed that Aquamix have another product Sealer's Choice Gold. I've uploaded a couple of close up pictures of one of the tiles to Flickr, link as above. Do you think that it would be worthwhile cleaning them then trying this or another sealer?

They don't need sealing..

Hi Dave,

We have marble mosacic shower tiles as the base which has some minor ethcing. I am using some marble polishing powder to restore its shine. Is Lithofin Stain Stop Plus suitable for showers? I was recommended the NM Stain Stop but after doing a bit of reading I think that the Plus is more suitable given that it is water repellent. Can I please have your thoughts?

Cheers
