    Default Tile Giant Jakata matt black tiles??

    Hi guys

    Ive posted recently about some black polished porcelain floor tiles i laid without sealing them! Ive decided to rip the bodge job up and start again with some tiles ive seen in tile giant called 'jakarta matt black'. Could i get some advice before i lay them please!? Do i need to seal these first before laying or grouting or anything else i need to know as im a newbie to tiling! Or is it just polished porcelain tiles which need sealing first!!

    Thanks guys

    Tile giant reccomend cleaning them with grimex before sealing with mattsone. This has been confirmed by one of there guys on the forums a few months back. They tested various products with LTP and found the grimex and then Mattstone to be best.

    Although the tile isnt polished it does hold alot of grime etc so the sealer will help with maintenance.
