    Got a bottle, so not aerosol. Thought it might be a good idea to stop body fats building up on the floor, (porcelain mosaic).

    Thought I'd ask the question before usig it though as there would be a fair amount of work in applying it!

    Same as above, I have had good results with the lithofin, does take a bit of time to apply but seems to do what it says on the tin.

    just put tape around a 1" brush it works a treat so the bristles don't spread

    on ceramics you can use Mattstone by LTP.

    Ofcourse when using polished porc or stone you can just use whatever sealer your using on the tile.
