Will this dull a shiny glazed tile? Humidity in summer makes my indoor tile very slick

I do not believe the difference is noticeable. Our steps are treated but the landing with the same tile is not treated and the tiles look the same to me. You might treat a tile in an out of the way location to see how it compares. We are pleased with the improved grip of the treated tile.

It did not dull our tile which is under roof of front porch. I live in Florida...tell me about humidity! Lol

Have used it for years. Never had a problem. Maybe it's something in your tile???

I have polished tons of antique carrera marble and the polisher will make it as smooth as glass. Regarding tiled shower, depends on type of tile. If it is stone yes, if it is a ceramic with a finish or some other type of tile I am not sure.

Yes, but don't let it get wet. Also, it leaves a gritty coating that you can see and feel. I painted the edges of a side table that had glass "rocks" and had to scrub it off the glass as it looked and felt icky. I also painted a thin line around a light switch cover and you can feel the grittiness. Doesn't really work for outdoor items, as by the time the sun sets, the glow is feeble. Works great indoors, though!

It is mildly abrasive. If the surface you are polishing has a top coat, it will dull it. If the surface is a solid material such as copper, silver, or stainless steel, it will remove tarnish and give it a shine. It's the best stuff I've used but a person should be mindful regarding what they are using it on.

I put a glaze on mine and it did take longer to dry since the tile is made of foam but other than that it did fine.

Hi Beth, I used this on my ceramic tile floors, granite kitchen counter tops "Cielo Blanco" and also on my bathroom counter tops" Bianco Antico" and they all came out wonderful. This sealer will leave a permanent protective coating which will last for a very long time. When dry this sealer will not enhance the sheen of you granite but will enhance its beauty and depth and will leave great protection against spills that if not protected would be able to soak in to the granite tending it to look dingy over time. Hope this helps!

I have Saltillo tile, and have this product sponged on annually - as many as 3 applications in high traffic areas. It works great, but my tile is really absorbent, so the shine lasts just under a year. It doesn't get scratched so much as dulled.

No. It's a matte and mostly should be used to seal grout. Ceramic tile should not be sealed to a high gloss. If you don't care and just want it to be shiny, then try a floor finish. I do this for work.

I wouldnt use it, it is made for no wax lino or tile. It restores the sheen to dull floors. You need to apply periodically

It should be. Mine is applied to glazed tiles, and was easily peeled off for adjustment. No residue left behind.

Probably not. When wet it is an Elmer's glue consistency. When dry it is smooth, but not a like hard ceramic glaze. I could see it possibly melting or becoming sticky to the touch.

We recently did our master bath with these tiles. I mixed semi-gloss water based paint with a little water and put in a 1 gallon garden sprayer (the kind you pump-up for pressure). You can adjust the nozzle to do a fine mist. I "spray-painted" my tiles before putting them on. It worked great. I "spray-paint" everything like that. =) From past experience, if you spray-paint stryofoam of any kind, it'll melt.

I use this product on my hardwood floor, and it leaves a beautiful shine...however, it does dull the color of my linoleum floor...

I used it on older linoleum tile. It worked well. It looks shiny and wears well.

I do not know because we have the polished concrete floors. I do have tile in my bathroom but, it never looks dirty enough for me to tell if the steamer has cleaned it or not. It always looks clean. It doesn't produce a whole lot of moisture (your floor doesn't look soaking wet when you go over it) but, a lot of vapor production.

I have a friend who does not see well anymore and likes to plan Tile Rummy. I marked the tiles with nail polish in the circles below the numbers. I used bright blue for the red and clear for the green. She can see the clear because, not only can she feel it, but it is shiny. No problem seeing the bright blue. Don't know if this will help your husband, but it did the trick for my friend. Good luck!
