Sealing tiles and grout

[Tel77]

I've just finished tiling shower area with porcelain tiles and have been told about some aerosal sealer that stops the grout discolouring as well as sealing the tiles.

Does anyone know if these products work and where to find them?

Don’t know about or use aerosol sealers but this stuff is about as good as you will get;

What type of porcelain have you got, glazed or polished? Your probably OK or you would have noticed but worth remembering that some polished porcelain tiles need sealing BEFORE you grout!

Hope you got a good, waterproof tile base

yeah you can get that it makes the grout waterproof so it is not porus therefore no staining not sure how long it lasts though, you might have to reaply every so often it does not seal the tiles though but you wont have to if its a glazed porcelain.

Thanks for the info. I'm sure the tiles are already glazed and sealed (everything that's spilt on them so far seems to wipe straight off )

A guy i work with swears by this aeresol sealer for the grout but it doesn't seem to be common thing by the sounds of it.
