Hi all,
Just getting a tiler in to fit my Travertine Honed and Filled tiles.
He has explained that these need sealing before and after fitting.
He has told me that the sealer is expensive and recommended that I try to find some on-line first.
This forum seems the best place to look.
The tiles...

Can you recommend a seal that you've used...

I used the protective sealer properly, first coat, wait 15 mins, second coat, wait minimum an hour before use. In fact I waited about a day, as something cropped up.
