Sealer...how do you do it.

18 years ago

Ok for all you pros out there....how do you apply your sealer, and what kind do you use????

I have a few projects that are complete but sealing...and I always have trouble with it. I have tried two kinds Tile lab sealer and a foam type 'Aqua Mix / Spray & Go'. The tile lab is like water of course and the aqua mix is like a foam which stays in place better for absorption but is more expensive.

Please tell me what you use and how you apply it.

Thanks

I spray on the Tile Lab and apply the Aqua Mix with a foam brush. I wait a minute or so, then start polishing off the tiles or glass with a damp rag.

Thanks you two for your replies. I'm going to have to do some shopping to see what's out there. The projects I'm most worried about are the outside projects. I like to do things for my garden and am worried about sealing them so they don't fall apart on me.
