Default Advice Pleae. How to clean white Limestone tiles with before sealing.

Hi
Just had my white limestone tiles delivered for my ensuite. Some of the tiles have dirty handling marks on them and I was wondering what to use to clean them before I seal them. I want to seal them before laying so any suggestions or help would be great.

Thanks again.

if they came in a crate you need to take them out and let them dry thoroughly ,the grubby marks should just wash off use a white scouring pad and some elbow grease and clean water and they should just dissappear seal the tiles with lithofin stainstop or fila mp90 these will seal the stone without affecting the colour

Hello, am i right in thinking they are called 'Miros' or 'Antalya'. They are the same stone but 1 is tumbled and the other is honed. These are a nightmare to clean, try lithofin wexa or powerclean. If they are really bad send them back. I used to work for a tile importer and you would'nt believe the state these tiles would go out to customers in.
