Q: Can I spray over silicone sealant?
A: Most silicone sealants would be non-porous so spraying the grout sealer over it would have no real benefit
Q: Will this grout sealant fix the leak in the shower grout in a wet room?
A: Sorry, it is not possible for us to guarantee that. It might do, but depends on how bad the leak is and the cause. Hope that helps.
Q: Can grout sealer be applied on the grout between glass tiles? Do tiles need to be cleaned once applied to prevent marks?
A: If you follow the 'how to' guide video and instructions. It should be fine, we would suggest trying a sample 1st. Hope that helps.
Fast delivery easy to use no staining to tiles. Its been on 2 weeks and so far all is good
Grout sealer works well, easy to apply and doesnt stain.
Couldn't be more impressed with this grout sealer. Purchased for my new bathroom and initially planned to use a well known alternative brand. However, most existing grout sealers have been around for 10 years, and I figured technology has moved on leaps and bounds. Applied one coat by hand with a fine artists brush, it immediately absorbed and the grout darkened. Within 30 minutes the grout returned to its origional shade. Applied a second coat today that took longer as it didn't want to absorb into the grout very quickly, which tells me that the first coat did exactly as it should and sealed the grout in one hit. Excellent product ?
