Hi,

We're having some work done on the home and having some natural stone tiles fitted into our kitchen and orangery.

The tiles that we will be using are natural honed quartzite/slate. However, I am unsure as to which brand of sealant would be best.

The supplier of the tiles recommends that the Fila XP90 is used as it is an impregnating sealant, and the one they use.

I want to ensure that the work is done well and lasts, and after looking online, many suggest the Lithofin stain-stop. Our tiler has suggested that either of these would be good choices. Both of which can be had for roughly the same price.

As I am no expert in this field. I would like some advice on which would be the best choice. I am looking to preserve the natural beauty of the tiles, without altering their appearance too much.

Which sealant would be best to use on quartzite tiles, the Fila MP90 or the Lithofin stainstop?
Should I choose a solvent or water-based sealant?

Any help and advice is appreciated.

Hi Lazmar, Which sealant you ended up using and are you happy with it please? I am in very similar dilemma now with limestone tiles :)
