Everything you Need to Know about Slate Stone Tile – Pros and Cons
Slate looks classy and rustic on your floors. Many people get this natural stone installed in their showers too....
Most of you indulge in cleaning your natural stone and grout on a regular basis. In case of a chip, some of you also repair it using adhesives, but what most of you ignore is the sealing process. Sealing natural stone is one of the most important steps to ensure that your tile flooring, countertops or showers look great and last for a long time. Any natural floor file needs to be periodically sealed and for this you need to have a proper sealer. Here we will explain how Celine – pFOkUS’ stone grout sealer is the best for sealing natural stone.
Before we understand how Celine works, let us know more about the structure of natural stone, to understand the sealing process better.
If you want to add longevity and enhance the sheen of your natural stone, you need to clean and maintain it regularly. A good sealant is also required to preserve its natural brilliance. If you do not seal your natural stone, it can easily lose its lustre and deteriorate after some time.
To prevent these occurrences, it is easy to seal natural stone using a good quality stone grout sealer.
Celine is a clear resin flexible topical solvent that adds a hydrophilic layer on natural stone tile and grout. This natural stone sealer makes the surface waterproof and hence more durable and long lasting. It soaks into the tile/grout surface and not shuts the pores from within, thereby preventing further moisture absorption. It also ensures that the tile/grout is easier to clean.
If you want to retain the sheen and brilliance of your natural stone tile, then it is best to seal it at the time of installation. If you have not sealed it at the time of installation, you can seal it anytime later by first cleaning the tile thoroughly using a floor tile grout cleaner. Your surface should always have the appearance of drops of water as if it’s beaded. If you find the water penetrating the surface, then you need to seal it. Even if you have previously sealed the surface, but now find water to permeate, then it is an indication that your sealant has worn off. If you fail to reseal your tile, it could lead to permanent staining on the surface.
