Hey all -
As with all the other newbies around here, I am seeking the porfessional advice of everyone - I am planning to do the dry install of saltillo tile, sealing them first, but in reading this I am wondering if you seal the underside of the tile to keep from too much moisture absoption. I know you all do not recommend sealing the sides so the grout will adhear, but what about the bottom side?
Also, I am wanting the tile to have the darkest natural color possible, so what kind of sealer is recommened? Oil based?
Many thanks in advance for any help!
