Grouting Chiselled edge tiles
Read nowI've received samples of the chiselled edge slate tiles and we love them.
I am unsure of how to lay them because of the angle and thickness of the edges. Do you butt the tiles up to the next or leave a very small gap as a grout joint?

Grouting slate floor tiles
Read nowI have grouted my slate floor, but I can't seem to get the tiles completely clean, there remains a light cloudy dust on the tile itself.
I've gone over the tiles several times with a clean sponge, clean water and I can't seem to get that cloudy dusty look off from the grout.
Once it dries it goes back to the dusty look. Have spent an easy 2 hours on a small portion just trying to get it clean. How do I get it off?
Once the final seal is on will it just cover it, or will it show up?
Is there some sort of solution I should buy to clean with? Is it possible that I didn't put enough initial seal on and therefore the slate is absorbing in the dirty water?
