Hi
I've looked and looked and I couldn't find an answer. But I'm happy to just be referred to an existing thread if I've missed it.
I need to replace the sealant around the bath. But the fact it's against travertine seems to make it tricky. I thought I could just buy any sealant until I noticed on the tube I'd picked up it said not to use with natural stone. Topps Tiles said not to worry, to just use anything, but when I called their helpline they said to make sure I used a neutral-curing one.
I've found a few posts where people recommend neutral-curing sealant, but apparently there are some neutral-curing ones you can't use. According to the technical specs anyway. I found Soudal Silirub+, but the S8000 that you can buy in Screwfix says not to use it on natural stone. It specifies Silirub+ S8800 for that, but I can't find where to buy it! And someone recommended Mapei Mapesil, but in their technical spec it says it's suitable for natural stone but that it might stain porous stone; so can you or can't you! And where do you buy it?!
I just want to replace the sealant without messing up the tiles!!
Hope someone who has had experience with using them can help.
Thanks
Jules
