I just had porcelain tiles laid throughout my downstairs. Tile & grout sealed with "gloss sealer & finish" ?

Question

The gloss is uneven from tile to tile and even on the same tiles. The sealer was applied with a mop and dried uneven. The installer suggested I use mop and glow.......will this help? What do I do to get a consistant gloss on my tiles or do I need to strip this stuff off?

Answer 1

Strip with solvent and reapply sealant, this is the correct thing to do. Do not use mop and glow!

Answer 2

Take lots and lots of pictures and get it in writing because that doesn't sound right to me! But I did all of my stuff myself and the way I wanted it.

Answer 3

Porcelain tile does not need a  sealer only the porous grout will absorb the sealer.. If sealer is left on a surface and not allowed to be absorbed it will be splotchy.. All sealers warn not to be allowed to "puddle" w/o being wiped off.. How to get it off? Check the manufacture, I wouldn t try a thing until I know what it was made from  GL
