Sealer suggestions

[Colour Republic]

What sealer would you guys use on this floor.

They are Waxman ceramics 'Winklemens' unpolished. I'm doing two areas, one a kitchen one a bathroom.

I have already bought HG Golvpolish which I've used before but only really took note of the full instruction on the bottle today. A few things worry me.

One is that the floor should be left to dry for three days after cleaning but surely this only applies to old floor that have a good soaking whilst cleaning, not a new floor that is only going to get a damp wipe down, no?

The other is that whilst it drys in 3 hours it again takes 3 days before it hardens and becomes fully waterproof, I'm a bit more worried about this part as the the grout is going to be Mapei Anthracite and any staining on the white tiles and i'm gonna be in trouble, surely I don't have to wait 3 days before grouting.

So any other suggestions? I as thinking either LTP Mattstone or maybe Lithofin Stainstop (plus or W)

Or I just stick with the HG

This is a good one i have used.. but be careful as with all topical sealers in bathrooms.. tiles can be slippy.
LTP Ironwax Satin

Maybe I should go for the Lithofin KF stain-stop then as an impregnator. The tiles are actually from Waxmans anti-slip range and as the bathroom is very small and they have a 5 year old who I imagine likes a good splash around I can see the floor getting a good soaking from time to time.

Plus I have some satin stop left over from another job

Edit: ok maybe will have to buy some more as it's MN stain stop not KF :doh:
