The Basics of Grout Color Sealing


 
Home Improvement
A grout color sealant's advantages include protecting the floor from stains, any spills or dirt may be removed easily than with a clear sealant, and a grout color sealant makes the floor's grout line waterproof. There are some of the ways of using grout color seal. The color sealing also cuts off color blemishes or pre-existing stains in the floor's grout lines. Moreover, colored sealers repel oil-based and water-based liquids. They also repel certain mild acid-based liquids like red wine and coffee.

Another benefit is that it protects against food-related stains. The seal also protects the surface from impurities and dirt. The color seal also has agents to stop the formation and spreading of mildew and bacteria on the floor. The colored sealing makes the grout new-looking again. It also gives the floor grout a more uniform and even appearance.

The color seal can be applied on almost all tile surfaces like walls, floors, shower areas, and countertops. However, the tiles must be porcelain or ceramic. The grout also has to ben sanded properly for the sealer to bond effectively with it. This may be matched to the grout's existing color. Most companies are also able to match the color palate of the manufacturer.

If the tile grout is properly maintained, the color sealant's protection should last about five to 10 years before the requisite touch-up work. Most manufacturers of color sealant's offer lifetime warranties for floors cleaned, maintained, and sealed by them on a yearly basis. The warranties normally state that if the color sealer begins to disintegrate while the manufacturer is maintaining it, the warranties stipulate that the companies will touch-up the affected areas free of charge. This ensures that the customer gets beauty for the tile grout and a lifetime of protection.

After the tiled floor has been cleaned professionally, neutralized and then dried fully, the grout color seal is applied. The sealer is administered by using professional equipment and the sealer is then allowed to set for a while and seep into the tile grout. The excess sealer is then wiped off and the whole floor area is buffed up by a professional floor buffer and cleaned to remove any excess haze left by the application process. It takes about two hours for the sealant to dry. The floor is cured fully in around two weeks.

Proper grout preparation is perhaps the most important step in the process. A professional cleaning firm has the right training, experience, and tools to achieve exceptional grout application results. There is an eight-step cleaning procedure done by these companies' cutting-edge cleaning equipment. Having the tile grout professionally sealed assures complete and comprehensive protection for the floor's entire surface.

A DIY procedure involving the application of grout color seal is not recommended. The application of the grout and the subsequent sealing is an art that is learned through years of practice and training. The process is best done by professionals. The right way to seal the floor grout assures customers of better protection, beauty, and cleanliness of the floor.
