What is the pro's and con's of Silicon in impregnating sealer. Floor is polished marble with sharp square edges.

Also how long after applying the sealer should i wait before i grout? states 6 hours for light traffic ie walking and 2 - 3 days until fully cured.

Then how long after grouting before i can apply another coat of sealer?

Final question - when i apply the grout should i leave it level(flat) or round it off?

thanks in advance for your all your advise.
