i have made a big bood, i have filed holes in and them sanded this down which has now left dull patchy marks all over floor, any suggestion of repairing this.

thanks margaret

I Am Sure One Of The Sponsors Can Give You A Better Answer But Sand Them All Equally And reseal?!

You are ment to fill the holes in! why have you tried to sand them down?

Filled them with wot

You will if scratched, need to repolish them

Have you filled them with sanded or unsanded grout? What finish was on the travertine? Can you post some pictures please? We can try and help then with a bit more info

Kev

are you saying you've sanded down with sandpaper, if so this is the reason you have dull tiles, if they were filled with grout they should have just been wiped down.

WetDec will be along shortly I reckon....

For my two-penneth, if the floor isn't huge I would work my way through a range of sand papers - start with fine grade and work through to extra fine / wet&dry to give a uniform finish. Clean away all dust and slurry and seal properly with a good quality penetrating sealer.

If the floor is large, then it may be best to call in a professional!

Hi Margaret
Where do you live? If there is someone local to you they might be willing to pop round and offer some advice.
Cheers
Ian

Hey Gaz, sand paper is the way forward - didn't you know!!!
