Hi , firstly , if the customer had bought an impregnator , there will be no shine, if the tile is matt the tile, it will be matt after the correct application of any impregnator.
test one or two stones, you may have a light polymer smear on this tile as well as a grout residue, from us test lithofin power clean 1-3 with a white pad 5-8 min

if it struggles to get through seal , stripp two tiles with wax off then try the diluted power clean again.if this works dry floor 4-5 days and re-seal with the imp- no shine!!! if still issues put some pics on here , for us to look at.
regards Lithofin (going down hill ) Bob

Ive been to the job and tried a sample of LTP solution which the customer picked up. I went over 2 tiles and hand scrubbed them and they came up perfect. I will be picking up lithofin power clean as mentioned as im used to this product from floor restoration which i did when i first got into tiling. This is why previous comments from certain people were naive and just completely negative. Most things can be rectified!!
Is it adviseable not to use a different sealer afterwards? We started with Fila but i would prefer to use Lithofin.
Thanks again for your advise. That was the sort of advise i expected from a site like this.
Cheers

Hi, if you have enough fila left , use that ,top end product for your client and no issues with contamination of products( shouldn't be an issue anyway , but play safe)

'Comments were naive and negative'

Like a lot of posts that appear on here the information comes in drifts and drabs and yours was no different!
If you forget to mention that you sealed the tiles prior grouting that is fairly important if your after advice!
If you give the impression that you've just done 110 meters of flooring when in fact someone else has done it, that is relevant!
Expect all types of replies from a forum and take what you want from them, but remember you are the OP so provide enough information so those with the passion for seeing our trade done professionaly can continue to help .

Listen John, You are right it didnt come in a fully descriptive way and since you are used to such informaion being displayed so poorly and minimally then you should have used your better judgement and not been so utterly negitive. I was pretty surprised at the attacking method used by a couple of you. I did think this was a place to get useful advice. You proved me wrong. Luckily for me there are people out there willing to help people instead being so pretencious.
