Question 1

Will this work on honed marble or will it ruin the honed look?

Accepted Answer

I used this on the slate tiles on my porch...made the colors brighter and added a sheen of sorts.  It didn't last more than a month, so it was a total waste of money and time.  I don't think it is something you want to use on your honed marble.  If you are looking just to seal, buy a sealer that doesn't enhance colors or change the sheen. (I am no stone expert, but I wouldn't put it on my marble)!

Question 2

How clean does the river rock tile need to be in a shower that was installed 2 years ago before applying enhance and seal?

Accepted Answer

I over did the cleaning as the grout needed a lot of work.  I use diluted cloro for the mold, rinsed then I did diluted vinegar. i waited until the shower floor was paper dried before I applied the sealer. I followed directions and did 2 coats. So far we are very happy with the results.

Question 3

How do I prepare the slate for preparation?  Can I just use warm water and detergent?

Accepted Answer

I used dish soap and water.
Gave the stone a quick rubbing with a firm, but not hard ,bristle scrub brush.
Then rinsed with fresh water.
Let dry, then applied the 511.
The 511 is amazing.
That is how I did my two walkways.
it took time but.
 worth it.
I have a rather large back  patio which I did ss well. 
Because the area I was to clean, and then enhance , was so large , I very, very carefully power washed to clean. 
If you decide to power wash , be very careful because too much force could flake this type of stone.

I hope this was helpful.

Question 4

I need a grout seaaler for use in shower with glass tiles. Grout is buttercream colored. Will this work or better suggestions

Accepted Answer

I don't have glass tiles so not sure for that as I used on a natural stone shower floor but my grout was light beige. Product worked well. Slightly darkened grout to what it looks like when wet. Holding on very nicely about a month in with much less soap scum on it. Not sure if it's meant for glass tiles.
