New tiles.... Wax coating???

[Stevev]

Just unpacked some new tiles and every one seems to have some kinda wax on it in places. What should I do to clean this off before laying

 

[Qwerty]

Yes, it's just transit wax. Gently wipe/ scrape off as you work

Ahhhhh OK, thanks

I see that a lot on the small stuff, just wipe off as the main man says.

I have 2 lines down all tile sof 2 boxes of porcelain tiles. Tried wiping off, even scrubbing brush....not shifted!!! What could I try , this is not simply a light coating

Got any pictures you can post?

He’s already posted some photos Paul, are they not showing up for you ?
It’s very common wax, just scrape off as you go or before you grout with a blade or whatever is easiest for you

Not Colins tiles, no. Are they in a different thread?
