Grout Sealers A Life of Misunderstandings
Posted 10-01-2009 at 09:52 PM by Bud Cline
When it comes to grout sealers they are [maybe] one of the most misunderstood tile products available to consumers today.
Today's grout sealers are very sophisticated chemicals.
Grout sealers are not waterproofing products as some people believe they are. Grout sealers will not waterproof anything.
Grout sealers are not stain-proofers. Grout sealers will not guarantee 100% protection against staining of any kind from every source.
Grout sealers are not color enhancers that will change the color of miscalculated grout and stone fulfilling your every dream.
Grout sealers are not mold preventers.
Grout sealers are merely a front line of defense to thwart off some attacks and to allow one a little time to rectify a spill in a timely fashion.
Grout sealers in a shower will offer a person the opportunity to almost effortlessly maintain a shower before infiltration of unwanted foreign agents [such as soap scum and body tissues] can soil the grout permanently.
Grout sealers are vapor transmissive so as to allow the evaporation of moisture that penetrates them. Let me say that again! Grout sealers are vapor transmissive so as to allow the evaporation of moisture that penetrates them.
Therefore...it stands to reason that grouts that can be darkened from the migration of moisture will in fact allow grouts to become temporarily darkened.
Not to worry..the sealer is doing its job.
