I AgreeA tile sealer is a liquid coat applied to the porous surface of the tile or grout. It protects tiles from oxidation, natural deterioration, and day-to-day wear. Generally, tile sealers protect unglazed tiles and grouts from absorbing stains. Sealing tiles and grout minimizes the porosity of the materials and protects the tiled surface, increasing its resistance to dirt, spills, staining, and general wear. Sealing tiles and grout means they last longer, look better, and are easier to keep clean. In order to check if a tile requires sealing or not, one has to apply the ink marker to a corner of one tile and leave it for a few minutes. Once done wipe off the ink; if there is a stain where the ink has penetrated, the tile then will need sealing. If all the ink wipes off with no marks left, then there is no need to seal.

Many tile sealers contain harmful chemicals such as propane, polymers, butyl acetate, and hydrocarbons. Therefore, a grout sealer should only be used in areas with good ventilation. This will prevent vapors from building up and causing lung damage. Also, the sealer containers need to be kept out of prolonged exposure to sun and heat. This can cause fumes and vapors in the container which may lead to fire. There are risks of inhaling or ingesting the fumes. Even skin contact with the fumes of inhaler or chances of getting it into one’s eyes is dangerous. These factors are restraints of the tile sealer market.
