Silicone Sealant












FAQ
Absolutely! Silicone sealant is a great option for sealing tiles, especially in areas with high traffic and exposure to moisture. It creates a waterproof barrier that protects your tiles from damage and stains while also providing the flexibility to withstand movement and vibration. It's important to use a product that's specifically formulated for use on tiles and follow the manufacturer's instructions for application to ensure that it's done correctly.
Whether it's better to grout or silicone depends on the specific application and personal preference. Grout is a popular choice for interior tiles because it creates a clean, uniform look, but it's not waterproof and can crack over time. Silicone is a flexible, waterproof sealant that can be used to fill gaps between tiles, as well as between tiles and other surfaces. Silicone for tiles is particularly useful for areas that are prone to movement or vibration.
Removing silicone sealant from tiles can be a bit tricky, but there are several methods you can try. One option is to use a specialised silicone sealant remover, which can be found at most hardware stores. Follow the manufacturer's instructions carefully for the best results. Another option is to use a sharp blade or scraper to carefully cut away the sealant, being careful not to scratch the tiles. You can also try using rubbing alcohol, white vinegar, or a mixture of baking soda and water to soften the sealant and make it easier to remove.
