Sealer In An Aerosol.

[StevieBoy]

Does anyone on here have any experience of using those sealers you can buy in an aerosol can?

Do they actually work like sealer does out of a can that's brushed or rollered on?

Yep used a grout sealer in spray form before. The water just beads straight off it.

Make sure you wear respiratory mask and use as much ventilation as possible when applying.

So if you were applying it to a grout where there are ceramics, would the excess need to be wiped off the tiles?

As above....Judges post.

Yeah when it dries it just leaves a slight haze that needs to be wiped off

I can't remember the name of it, but we used to have a sponsor who did it a few years back and a fair few people rated it. Wasn't for all tile types, but it was a good sealer apparently.

There's two that I'm familiar with. LTP Grout and Tile Protector and the other is Sealguard.

The LTP can be sprayed on when grout 20-30 minutes after applying. Both need buffing. Sealguard rep told me his didn't and that it just evaporated from the surface. I tested it. He lied! But, both work brilliantly.

Personally I'd go for LTP, but that's just my opinion.

Yeah LTP all day long.

But Sealguard that was it. Nice bloke the seller of that was I forget his name. I still owe him a meal.

Definitely wear a mask! I hadn't bothered before as I had just done floors with it previously. When I sealed an ensuite walls without I spent a week in bed! If you google it it says May result in respiratory problems and in some cases death!

And if you have some left over, you can waterproof almost anything with it. I've used it on my tent and walking boots.

So note for Glastonbury next year.... Anyone who want to pee up my tent in a drunken moment, beware of splashback!
