I was in B and Q getting some materials for a job this morning and i noticed these tiles. They do a nice grey that caught my eye. What also caught my eye was the price. At £15.00 a square metre for larger format, polished porcelain! Incredibly cheap i'd say, is this not enough to put people off?

you get what u pay for , personally i would,nt touch b&q tiles
 
Think it's been said on another thread but in my experience it is really hit and miss with B&Q polished porc - sometimes great to work with - other times I've taken a whole load back and saved myself the grief of trying to fix them.
 
Picked up 20 square metres of these tiles which i bought just after christmas for £10 a square metre. got one on the kitchen table with red wine and water on, gona see if it wipes off in the morning.

I wiped the water and wine off in this morning with a paper towel for a few mins, i could see a light dark mark but after a bit of wiping it disapeared and it left no marks.
Does this mean i dont need to seal them before i lay them?????
