I bought what I thought was a slate tile and had it laid in the bathroom.
N ow Im onto the kitchen and hall and Ive bought the same, a tiler quoted and informed me that it wasnt slate but slate appearance.

What I need to know is as its seems to be porous should i seal them as if they are slate , as i was told in the shop originally.

Hope your not all hung over, and had a great new year

If they are absorbant, then I'd definately seal them before attempting to grout.

Thought so thanks. Ive been reading about sealant and wonder if you think any one is better than the others??? ithofin sounds like it covers the job but does seem expensive,do you have any comments??

thanks

sorry lithofin stain stop plus 29.99

There is a good post here on slate tiles, not sure if slate effect tiles would use the same sealer or not though
