    Jakarta Black Polished Porcelain Floor Tiles

    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

    Tile over the top of polished porcelain

    Hi, Ive been a member a while but this is my first post. I would like some advice on whether I can tile over polished porcelain as the customer would prefer it if I could do that rather than pull the whole floor up. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Regards, Ben.
