Apologies if someone has already asked this question. I also had 20m2 of these tiles layed a couple of weeks ago, and the tiler has done a spot on job. My problem now is trying to seal them, I used the sealer recommended by B&Q, which is made by Plasplugs, this didn't dry and left me unable to touch it without leaving fingerprints all over. I managed to clean this off but wasted 8 hours of my life doing so. The tiles are not sealed now and are impossible to keep clean, every drop of water results in the tile having to be washed then buffed.
Can anyone advise me as to whether I need to clean the tiles with something before sealing, and if so which products to use for sealing and cleaning. Getting to the point where I'm considering pulling them up and starting again.
Any advice would be gratefully received. Thanks.

all you can do really, is get in touch with B%Q and let them ring round all theres stores

some of the staff in some of these B&Q stores are rather unhelpful but I am going to ring Leeds again on Monday and see if they can track a delivery of these white ones for me

B & Q have a rather rediculous ordering system in that.......if they have a couple of boxs on the shelf they wont order stuff to fullfil your order.

you just have to wait and see what comes in if it comes in at all !! on the strenght of that I changed my order from beige to white cos they had enough to fill the order.
