    Default How can I remove excess tile sealer?

    My husband sealed our porcelain tiles, but didn't buff off the excess. There is now a film on the tiles, which dirt sticks to like glue (I have to clean with grout cleaner and a scourer - all 30m2 of it!!). I think if I can remove the sealer, it will be a lot easier to clean. How do I do this? We used HG porcelain tile sealer. The tiles were unsealed. Should I reseal them (properly) once the excess sealer is removed?

    try using the same sealer to reactivate the old sealer. then buff excess. Try it in a small area first though.
