I've just laid some polished black 600 x 300 porcelain tiles under a range cooker in a kitchen. Only 1.5 sqm
In the living room I'm laying a one piece slate hearth 1300mm x 400mm.

I’m in need of a bit of advice.
I’ve laid some 600x600 porcelain floor tiles in a kitchen and have just applied a coat of LTP MPG sealer, which I’ve buffed up and am going to leave overnight.
I’m not sure what to do next. Should I grout them and then apply another coat of MPG, or apply the...
I have just purchased some Jakarta Black Polished Porcelain Floor Tiles (300x300) from Tile Giant and was also supplied with LTP MPG sealer, should I apply a coat of sealer prior to installing tiles, or seal once I have put them down ? (or seal before and after)
Thanks

I’m having problems cutting some 10mm 60x60 polished porcelain floor tiles.
I cant get a nice smooth edge. It splinters the surface on the edge when I cut them.
I’ve been and bought a new saw blade and its made no difference.
Any advice??

The tiles are laid but not grouted yet as i am having a nightmare with the sealing process. The...
Just a quickie in the Arms.
Would I be better off trying to remove wax and grout haze from polished porcelain tiles with Nanoscrub? Been reading a few threads on the subject and have come to this conclusion. BTW - the tiles have been laid and the tiler did not remove wax nor did he seal the...
Hello people!
Used a sealer called 'universeal rapid all in one' impregnator, which comes in an aerosol (simiular to what dave at tradetiler sells) to seal some black polished porcelain prior to fixing.
But it appears to have discoloured the tile in places where it may have been put on more...
