Best method of sealing porous tiles

Tilers Forums Official Sponsors

Any roller is liable to create a foam on the surface, I usually roller an area then give it a once over with microfibre cloth to even if out. These days all I use in universeal rapid all in one, it's usability is very different to Lithofin stuff.
Well as nobody has mentioned it I think I should, you need to use a low water content adhesive with quartz. 2 part is preferred but the likes of Tilemaster ultimate is suitable. I haven't fitted quartz in this situation so can't comment on its suitability ?
 
your right about the quartz but did you post that comment in the right thread?
arr you saying universal is more usable then Lithofin?
 
I knew why he was asking about sealer so thought I'd mention that here too. It's rapid by name rapid by nature. There's no excess to remove, it dries within a minute in any situation and there's no restrictions for its use on wet stone etc. Give it a go
 
Ive never used it so wouldn't know, but is it not a bit dodgy sealing moisture into stone that hasn't had a chance to dry properly?
Having done it numerous times without issue I'd say no mate. Do you leave your stone a week before sealing it as lithofin would recommend? Not many do methinks.

Is that the tile rite stuff? If so it’s what I used on the slate. Can apply a 2nd coat within an hour but there is residue. What’s the stuff you use called?
