The slate floor in my kitchen is now looking very dirty especially the grout lines.
Can anyone give me the best way to clean and reseal them by hand (small galley kitchen)
Any recommendations on what products to use would be really helpful
thanks

Hello, I've just cleaned my travertine-tiled kitchen floor up, and used Mapei ultra colour Jasmine grout to fill the holes, but I'm worried the grout will go grey/dirty and get discoloured? Will a sealant stop this? And if so, which is the best one to use?
