Sealing polished porcelain ? - TilersForums.com

It should have been MPG then..

What you can do is apply some more sealer and then buff off whilst the sealer is wet, this should remove the streaky residue you have now..

that seems quite easy then, just buff it off with a towel ?

Work in small sections as it will be hard work..

Use white paper towel to remove the sealer whilst wet and then yes a nice terry towel to buff up.. You will need plenty elbow grease.. trust me you will get a sweat on

I don't envy you the task paul...

Thanks for that, out of interest, would that machine be any good, as it is quite a large area.

This from MPG pdf..

Over applied and un-buffed sealer will dry and leave a
greasy residue on the surface. To remove, apply white spirit or a little more sealer and then buff
immediately.

I have looked at that machine.. but if you look on ebay there are larger 15 inch machines that will buff it in a crack.. it is hard work hence why i am looking for a nice buffer.

Yeah I would get one if it would do a better job/quicker job. I believe it will need sealed every year so would be worth it. Next question, what if the wax is on it?

on the plus side, you will have arms like popeye at the end of this..

I would use Aquamix Sealer & coating remover..this will remove the sealer and any wax thats on the tile. You will need a rotary scrubber and a wet vac really to do an area this size. www.tradetiler.co.uk a forum sponsor sells this it is in the sealer section on his web site in the problem solving section.
