    Tile Sealing/Haze Remover
    I just finished grouting my bathroom and now I have to seal the stone and use the haze remover... but I don't know which one I should do first?!

    Should I seal the stone/grout first or use the haze remover first?

    Thanks,
    Adam

    Remove the haze first, let it dry, remove again if necessary and then seal. Wish we had talked earlier, I would have steered you to an epoxy grout that's stain proof and never needs sealing.

    Thanks for the help. I did the haze remover tonight. I will do the sealer tomorrow. I put stone down, so I would have had to seal that anyway.

    Any advice on sealing the stone?

    Yes, you are correct but I'd still favor stainless grouts. Make sure you are totally happy with the entire haze removal before sealing. Sorry but I have not done stone in years so maybe one of the other guys will catch this post. This might help stone sealer - buyersnetwork.info
