    Default Fila Matt Wax onTumbled Limestone

    Anybody got experience of using this? The stone supplier have given this to my customer i've applied Filafob (sealer) before and after grouting and now need to give the floor two coats of wax. I've done one room so far and it makes the floor a little slippy - does this reduce with wear? Any feedback welcomed.
    Ta Lee.

    So is it to Antique the stone..?

    If so then you have to thoroughly buff off the excess... LTP do liquids to do this, much easier... that's Antique not buff off

    Do NOT put wax on natural stone of any kind. It stops the stone from breathing which could create spalling if moisture may ever be present. As well, the wax will loose its luster and turn white making the stone look nasty later. Use a good stone sealer and be done with it.
