Frequently Asked Questions
Other FAQs :
- Q: What is the expected drying time for my travertine tiles?
- A: It typically takes around 4 hours for the travertine tiles to be touch dry after the sealing process. However, for the sealer to fully cure and for you to safely move furniture or other heavy items back onto the tiles, it is recommended to wait at least 24 hours. During this time, it is important to avoid placing any hard objects on the tiles or grout to prevent any potential damage.
- Q: Can the act of sealing travertine floors effectively conceal scratches and etches?
- A: Tile Cleaning offers a colour enhancing sealer that may assist in concealing scratches; however, we cannot guarantee a complete restoration of the original condition. The Deepshield™ Penetrating Colour Enhancing Sealer has the ability to darken travertine tiles by up to 20% and can help camouflage etches, providing a renewed, natural appearance to your travertine floors.
- Q: What does the term "sealer" refer to?
- A: When we talk about a "sealer," we are referring to a liquid or carrier that contains a resin. This substance is applied to porous surfaces, whether they are natural stone or man-made materials. The primary function of a sealer is to provide protection against staining caused by water and/or oil-based materials. By applying the sealer, you can prevent these substances from penetrating and staining the surface. Additionally, a sealer can enhance the overall cleaning results by making it easier to clean and maintain the surfaces effectively.
- Q: What type of sealer is applied by Tile Cleaners®? Will it have any impact on the texture of my travertine tiles?
- A: All the sealers used by Tile Cleaners® are water-based. Solvent-based sealers are only used in specific cases when they are the only suitable option. The application of the sealer will not have any impact on the texture of your travertine tiles. Instead, it will provide protection against staining while preserving the natural, glossy appearance of your travertine.
- 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.
