Thanks all for your replies.
I finally used BAL microcolour for floor - pebble and is finer as compared to microflex.
Worked nicely!

I used BAL pebble in my kitchen. Did anybody recommend sealing the grout once it's dry? I had to in the kitchen cos it's such a high traffic area. So, I'd recommend getting a grout sealer

The marble floor tiles are pre-polished by manufacturer, however as with any stone tiles, I will be protecting these with "Hg Marble and Natural Stone Shine Finish". The problem is that you have to compromise on the original manufacturer polish sheen + the pain of applying this as small bubbles of air spoil the glossy shine when applying this solution.
But protection is more imporrtant than lustre shine so I just went for protection. Is there any way of nicely applying the marble or stone gloss finish protector with anything which will not create small bubbles when applying? Wax applicator? or normal clean lint-free cloth? or Numatic floor machine? I dont know - I tried micro-sponge and I still get bubbles, I tried micro-fibre (lint free) cloth and I still get bubbles :mad2:

sigh! :8:

YES!!! use Aqua Mix Sealers Choice Gold and apply it with a top quality paint pad.
