Take off the slurry using a clean water rinse. Continue scrubbing and rinsing until the floor is clean. On honed Sandstone, a couple of scrub and rinse steps is normally sufficient. Then again, with tumbled Sandstone, filled or unfilled, the cleaning might need several applications. The impacted dirt in deep cavities can not be got rid of with machine scrubbing alone.

Surface sealers are popular for sealing Sandstone.
The film serves Given that a wear layer, taking wear from foot traffic in place of the Sandstone itself.
Because the sealer sits over the surface of the Sandstone, we recommend putting on one or two of coats of impregnating sealer first.
When the surface sealer starts to wear, the impregnating sealer still gives you protection until such time as the floor is re-sealed.
You can expect a surface sealer to continue working 2 to 4 years.
We advise checking wear areas every few months for wear.
If an area is displaying traffic, deep clean the region to have rid of surface soil.
Then top the area up with a couple of coats of sealer.
This advice can make your sealer keep going a lot longer.
