Darkening grout/tile on tumbled marble backsplash (pre-grout sealant used)
Hello all:
I wish I read this site before our tile job - incredible info on here!
I have read many, many posts, but am still uncertain as to how to proceed.
Here's my problem:
Yesterday we sealed our tumbled marble backsplash 2x with penetrating sealer prior to grouting. We loved the color of the tile. Today, our contractor came back and applied the grout and when we got home tonight, the grout and tile now looks too light. We haven't touched it so far.
Do we:
-use a vinegar wash to remove any potential haze? if so, how long do we wait before doing this? is it safe?
-scrub it with warm water and rough sponge?
-apply a colour enhancing sealer on top?
-attempt to remove the original sealer (used pre-grout) and re-seal with a colour enhancing sealer (not sure if this will even work given there is grout ontop of the tile now)? Again, if so, how long should we wait?
-???
Thanks in advance to anyone who offers advice.
