What product will put a shine on a tile floor?

What can you do to put a shine on ceramic tile When the contractors put our tile down in our new building the tile is dull and has no shine to it?
First you need to identify what kind of tile you have. Ex. ceramic slate stone granite marble For each of the types there is a different way to get the shine your looking for. First clean the tile. Don't use acids or strippers because they can fade or change the color of the grout. Use vinegar and water. 1 part vinegar for 4 parts water. This alone may give the floor a nice shine. I use it when I do a final clean of floors I install. Next go to Lowe's Home Depot and get a tile seal. You will need to know what type of tile you have to determine what kind of seal you need. This seal will protect and give the floor a shine. It comes in many different varieties Main categories to look for are: original seal, semi-gloss seal, high-gloss seal. Now depending on the tile and the type of seal you got. You will need to seal the floor. Apply as many coats of seal as you want until you get the shine that you are looking for. Keep in mind to allow the floor to dry 2 hrs or whatever is recommend in between coats. To apply the seal is simple. Just spray it on and wipe it up with a sponge or cloth not colored be sure its white and sponge is some neutral color so it doesn't bleed onto tile. Be careful not to allow the seal to form puddles as they will leave white spots. Be sure to talk to someone in flooring dept before leaving to make sure you have everything you need.
