Slate Tiles

Options
I have dark grey slate tiles on my kitchen floor.

I mop them daily but to me they dont look clean & seem dull.

Any ideas what is good to clean them with or do they need a bit of a buff with something?

Advice needed!!
NEVER ASSUME! :rolleyes:

    I wonder if boiled lineseed oil would do rub it on leave to to dry the rub off with warm water and a rag thats what we did on a slate fireplace and it came up shiny buut not too shiny
  • have they been sealed. If not then you could use a product called enrich and seal. This will give them a permenant wet look.
