    We recommend using carnauba wax. It is also called Brazil wax and palm wax. You can usually find it in car detailing stores. The wax is a natural product that is used on food items such as jellybeans and apples.

    If you need to clean the tiles first, we recommend only using soap and water.. Just dry the tiles well, and once dry, apply the carnauba wax to protect the tiles from water.
