Other FAQs :

- Q: What type of sealer is applied to sandstone tiles, and does it alter the texture of the tiles?
- A: When it comes to sealing sandstone tiles, all our products at Tile Cleaners® are water-based. We typically avoid using solvent-based sealers, except in specific cases where it is the only suitable option. The application of our sealer will not impact the texture of your sandstone tiles in any manner. It is designed to preserve the natural texture and appearance of the tiles while providing essential protection against staining. Rest assured, our sealer will help maintain the desired lustrous and natural finish of your sandstone tiles.
- Q: What steps should be taken to prepare sandstone floors before the sealing process?
- A: Before we arrive to seal your sandstone floors, it is important to ensure that all furniture and items have been moved off the floors. By clearing the area, you provide our team with unobstructed access to the sandstone surfaces, allowing for a more efficient and effective sealing process.
- Q: What are the indicators or signs that suggest my sandstone floors are in need of sealing?
- A: To determine if your sandstone floors require sealing, Tile Cleaning recommends conducting a simple "water test." This widely-used method in the stone industry can help assess the need for sealing. Start by placing a few drops of water on the stone surface and allowing it to sit for approximately 10 to 30 minutes. Afterwards, wipe the water dry. If your sandstone did not darken during this process, it indicates that your floors are adequately sealed and do not require additional sealing. However, if the water droplets caused darkening or were absorbed by the stone, it signifies that your sandstone is susceptible to water penetration, indicating the need for sealing.
- Q: Does the application of sealer make sandstone floors slippery?
- A: When using Deepshield™ Impregnating Penetrating Sealer, there is no impact on the slipperiness of your sandstone floors. This sealer is designed to penetrate the top layer of the sandstone, preserving its natural slip resistance. However, it's worth noting that applying a Topical Sealer may potentially make the sandstone floors slippery when wet. To maintain both the appearance and slip resistance of your sandstone surfaces, it is advisable to opt for a high-quality, invisible, and fully breathable impregnating sealer. This type of sealer ensures that your sandstone is protected from damaging moisture while retaining its original slip resistance.
