    You should just need a clean cloth to polish off with.

    You could give a light coat of Mattstone then grout. This will help with the wash down. Then seal agaian as needed.

    No.1. Why have you adhesive on the tiles? (keep clean while setting).
    No.2. No such adhesive as keraquick maxi.( keraflex maxi?)
    You might need a product like power clean from Lithofin.

    Some grimex will get them clean before your first seal..
