Recently had new granite counter tops installed and even though sealed by very porous fabric. If I left any water on the counter top, it would bleed through and darken within minutes. Yes, I am talking about Tuff Duck Granite, Grout and Marble review! Even though they helped a little, I was still worried about it not sealing correctly. The reason I have been so anal about this is that it is a light granite and use in a apartment.
I purchased Tuff Duck best grout sealer and applied a coat. I let it place for 15-20 minutes, and the counter top darkened which let me know it was sinking in. I buffed it off and waited 24 hours. Did much better, but if water sat for 20 minutes, it would fall into the granite. I opted to put on a second coat, and it did the trick. I've tested by putting water on the counter and letting it stand for an hour, and it seems to be working as expected.
Features:
Tough Duck is terrific for my family. Best home depot grout for my home and family. We moved into a new apartment, and I am going to be sealing every inch of grout! I have this wood-look tile in the dining room with pretty light grout, and I do NOT want it turning black over time. By buying Tuff Duck Granite Sealer, this based on the reviews. I also purchased some condiment bottles to dispense this just over the grout line, and the application was so easy. I put on plenty and made sure it stayed wet for 10 minutes; then I wiped the excess off with a paper towel. Then I went back and did a second coat right after. We went to do an errand, and when I came back, I tested a spot, photo included. When wet this grout looks the same color as the tiles, when dry, it is white. You can see in the picture how well it beads up! I am amazed. Thank goodness for this product! I will say that I think gold grout brightened our grouted area just a bit; I mean it seems a little whiter than before. That’s fine with me but may affect someone else’s grout color.
