for a shower stall
what's the call on sealing slate before grouting so the slate dosen't get stained by the grout and retains it's vibrant color? in addition, how about sealing the whole shower after grouting is finished and wiped clean? any products out there you'd recommend for either of these seal jobs?

Hi Stefanie :)

Have you tried the search feature? :shades:

To speed up your search, it depends on what kind of slate you have. I'm guessing that you have one of the porous types. Ultimately it will depend on what you want it to look like in the end.

You'll need a minimum of two coats, no matter what the location.
