Sealing Stone with STONETECH®




Protecting Your Floors from "Flailing Arms"


Ever wondered why you need to seal your floors? The blog post from Sareen Stone explains why and provides a guidance on which floors need sealing, choosing the correct sealer and much more!

"Sealing stone and tile is like taking out an insurance policy. As the saying goes “prevention is better than cure”. Stone is naturally porous; basically meaning it’s like a sponge. Any liquid that comes in contact with unsealed stone will not only touch the face of the stone, it will be absorbed into the stone. Drinking red wine is a common occurrence worldwide - and many are familiar with the syndrome, which comes with the consumption of a bottle (or two), called ‘flailing arms’. The permanent, unsightly damage that occurs when flailing arms, meets unsealed stone is not something you want to have to deal with. You would have to choose to either replace the stone, which can be expensive, time consuming, messy and there’s the risk of not being able to perfectly match the batch of your stone; or work out your story to convince future visitors that the stain is red wine and not the result of some horrific accident!".
