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?
