Frequently Asked Questions
- A: To maintain the fresh appearance of your sealed sandstone tiles, Tile Cleaners® suggests regular cleaning on a weekly basis using a mild detergent. This will help remove any dirt or grime from the surface of the sandstone while ensuring that the sealer remains unaffected. It is crucial to avoid using strong detergents that have high acidity or alkalinity as they may compromise the integrity of the sealer. Instead, opt for mild detergents and pH-neutral substances for safe and effective cleaning. Furthermore, the best way to protect your sandstone tiles from staining and maintain their pristine condition is to seal them with one of our top-quality sealers. Sealing provides the optimal safeguard against potential stains and enhances the longevity of your sandstone tiles.

- Q: What is the process of acid etching and what measures can be taken to safeguard sandstone against it?
- A: Acid etching refers to the process where acidic substances come into contact with sandstone tiles, causing them to corrode or be eaten away. Sandstone is particularly vulnerable to acid attacks, and protecting it from such damage can be challenging. The most effective way to safeguard your sandstone tiles is to promptly seal them and clean up any spills immediately. Given the high porosity of stone-based tiles, sealing is essential to provide protection against future acid attacks and liquid spills. By sealing your sandstone tiles, you create a barrier that helps prevent the penetration of acids and other damaging substances, thereby minimizing the risk of etching and preserving the integrity of your sandstone surfaces.
- Q: Do you offer color enhancing services for travertine? If yes, could you provide an explanation of the process involved in color enhancement?
- A: Absolutely, we provide color enhancing services specifically designed for travertine. The color enhancement process involves the application of a specialized compound that enriches and intensifies the natural appearance of the travertine. By applying the color enhancer, the tiles' tones and hues are deepened, bringing out the inherent beauty of the travertine material. This treatment imparts a subtle wet or low sheen finish, enhancing the overall visual appeal of your travertine surfaces. Our color enhancing services are aimed at highlighting the unique characteristics and enhancing the aesthetics of your travertine.
- 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.

- Q: What is the significance of sealing sandstone tiles?
- A: Sealing sandstone tiles is a crucial step in ensuring their long-term quality and preventing potential damage. Unlike polishes, sealers are specifically formulated to create a protective barrier that prevents liquids and dirt particles from penetrating the porous nature of the natural stone. It is highly recommended to have your sandstone tiles sealed, especially during the initial installation process, as this initial seal can provide effective protection for up to 15 years. By promptly contacting professionals to seal your sandstone floors after installation, you can safeguard them against accidental permanent damage, preserving their beauty and durability for years to come.
