tiled a floor in polished goss marble iris beige goss reccomended rubi net sealer so i sealed the floor with a roller to get even coverage and left it to dry rubi dont state that you have to wipe excess residue off got there this morning and the excess residue is all over the floor spoke to rubi rep he said use white spirit or apply more sealer and use an emulsifying pad tried both and there are still marks on the tiles any of you guys got any advice on a product to clean them off properly thanks
 
Try Aquamix sealing and coating remover... then re-seal and buff any excess before it dries.. some sealers are very hard to remove..
 
Try Lithofin products - they have worked for me over the years. They do a remover of some kind I think which will take off what you've put on (look on their website). Wouldn't use white spirit though! I can't believe that was professional advice as you won't be able to seal it all after that I wouldn't have thought...

In future - don't use a roller on polished tiles as they don't absorb the product as much as rough surfaces - use a cloth and buff off excess straight away.

Hope this helps!

Sealer's need a dwell time for penetration purposes..:thumbsup:
 
well the latest is that the boss of goss bolton is taking his own res remover to the job and removing it himself and also buffing the floor every credit to him someone who knows when there advice was wrong and offers to put it right:thumbsup:
