Miracle Sealants High-Gloss Finish Sealer for Tile & Stone, Water Based, Gallon

i absolutely love slate showers and have installed quite a few now. i ran out of my ''slate sealer'', and wanted to try something new. i was besides myself with how amazing this turned out. the mfg described this as a topical sealer, almost as if it only coats the surface, but i watched it soak in in front of my eyes. it definitely worked like a penetrative sealer. it was a little tough to spread it perfectly even, it does take a little effort to get just right. 2 coats on the pictured shower took about 1/4 of the bottle. really great value, great stuff! permanent ''wet'' look.

You ever go to a high class place and wonder what they used to get the tile/brick floors looking like they were "wet" because they were so glossy and awesome looking? They might be using Miracle Sealant because that's what my floor looked like after I applied it. I just bought their applicators, but you can probably use any pad with that material and get the same results. But why? Theirs were inexpensive and right there and I knew they would work. Easy application. Spill on and keep pushing (or pulling) the pad in the same direction the entire time over the entire surface to apply. Wear gloves. If you are sensitive to VOC's, get a respirator (not a face mask, a full face respirator with OV (organic vapor) filters - might run $150+; worth it and reusable if you are sensitive). The stuff is low VOC, but if you are in an enclosed area, it gets to 'ya after 10 minutes even with a window/fan. I did two applications. I thought about three, but after two the floor looked so glossy-wet, that I figured I'd see nothing but glossy-reflection if I applied a 3rd coat. Pretty amazing. I used about 1/2 of the bottle on 120 Square feet of unglazed porcelain tiles to do 2 coats (so really, 240 square feet)- that is about 33% more tile coverage than the label said! I'm sure other tiles/brick would have sucked up more, though and put it right at what the label said - about 360 square feet covered. Fantastic product to truly get that "ritzy" feeling for your tile! Now, you know this one works and your search might end!

We did a lot of research before trying this. To sum it up this will darken the grout. It doesn't change the color much but it does change it a little bit. In our case it made it look nicer. More coats will darken it even more. Although you probably don't need more than about 1-2 coats. Since it doesn't repel water it actually will allow the grout to change color when it is wet but then the water will quickly dry. When without the sealer the grout will change color when wet and stay wet a lot longer. It doesn't change the look of the tile. Use an applicator that is designed for this. A little bottle can do a LOT of flooring. I didn't even wait 12 hours and was walking all over it. It didn't hurt it but I have heard that it can be a problem. For me it wasn't. If you have to walk on it don't use shoes. Just wear socks. It should be fine. It is dry to the touch in less than an hour. The fumes were not really that bad but I had opened all of my windows and had fans running. It is the worst when it is drying. Once it is dry it doesn't smell. Obviously this is not something you want to get in your eyes or mouth. It is very runny like water and does go a long way. All you do is put it down with the applicator and wait about 5 or so minutes. Don't let it dry. Wipe if off with some towels. It doesn't hurt the towel but I washed them by themselves in the laundry just to be sure. Came out clean. Used hot water. Overall it's a pretty simple process once you know what this stuff will do. Do not expect it to repel water. That simply isn't what this does. It hardens the grout so that nothing can be absorbed into the grout but it does not form a coating over the grout. So it does not appear waterproof and is not waterproofing the floor. Only preventing stains from happening.

I have porcelain tile that has a fairly rough, matte finish and I was worried that sealing it would produce a surface with too much slip and too much gloss. My chief purpose in applying it was to seal grout that gets dirty too easily and is hard to clean. I contemplated just sealing the grout, but that would have been too painstaking. I will say that the finished product has slightly more gloss than I would have chosen, but I expect most people would judge the look to be better than it had been before sealing. I was hoping that after coating, the tile would give a first impression of stone as it did uncoated; but it looks much more like tile. Color variation is a little more pronounced (in a good way) and there is some gloss in bright light. Grip is just as good in bare feet and rubber soles, a little less so in socks. The product is easy to apply, being the perfect viscosity for the thickness one is aiming at. The smell is quite bearable. I was glad I chose to have the windows open during application, but it was the middle of winter when I applied it; and I closed the windows within an hour of when I was finished. In a very tightly sealed house I noticed a hint of ammonia for a day or two after coating. I'm pretty sensitive to smells and this was barely more detectable than the smell from a room or two painted with a low VOC paint. Long ago, early in my life I saw acrylic floor coating systems peel. It's been a month since I did my 2300 sf home and, so far, no hint of that happening. I am a person who suffers from incredibly high expectations, and this sealant either met or nearly met all of them. Based on my experience so far, I'd recommend it to anyone with similar needs and expectations.

Very, VERY good stuff! The best I've used in long time! I'd give it a '10⭐️' rating if I could! Highly recommended!! Definitely brings out the effectiveness in the slate color. Looks very durable. Worth the money, and was easy to apply! Very capatibilty with the 'impregnating' sealer I applied beforehand, too!

Take the other reviews at their word, it does NOT dry to a high gloss, used it on dark slate, browns, greys, purples, oranges, slate dries to its natural color. I’m sure the sealer works fine, but I needed a gloss enhancement to match the existing project.

The product itself appears to be very good. Just applied it so I can’t speak to its durability. The biggest issue I have is with the directions. They are sorely lacking. No mention of the dry time. No mention of the recoat time. No mention of what solvent to use for cleanup. No recommendations for the number of coats to apply. Also, don’t waste your money on the recommended applicator. A foam brush would do a better job.

This was just what I was looking for. It went on easily and I only I container. The gloss really brought out the beauty of the slate tile.

Just had a new kitchen and a new tiled floor which is so shinny now I don't want anyone to walk on it. So pleased. Thank you

Funciona bien. Muy caro.

Wonderful instantly restored my pebble stone floor in my shower. May take a few coats but dries with that wet look

Product came with the seal broken. Someone used some of it and sent. Works good. But this is not acceptable.

Really disappointed with this product. It went on the floor tiles perfectly, however after a few weeks it has started to peel off in areas making the tiles look a real mess!
