Do you need to seal tile floors?

Yes. If it is a ceramic or porcelain tile you only need to seal the grout. If you have a natural stone or quarry you need to seal the tile and the grout. Generally when you install natural stone, you seal the tile before you grout. Otherwise the colorant in the grout will seep into the tile. If the floor is existing you would seal it all at once. Don't forget to use a stripper to remove any old sealer. Make sure the stripper is acceptable for the type of flooring you are sealing. Stone can be very delicate and damage easily. Vinegar can etch marble, granite, and travertine. One last note, you get what you pay for with sealer. Invest in a good sealer and you will get much better, much longer results.

How can you dye the natural stone?

A decorative dye colorant for use on various types of natural stone, such as granite, marble, limestone, and soapstone. The colorant is formed by mixing a solvent soluble dye with a suitable solvent, such as a ketone or an alcohol to form a dye solution. The solvent enables the dye to penetrate easily into the pores or openings located in the surface of the stone to color the stone so as not to mar the appearance of the surface of the stone. The dye is resistant to removal or discoloration, but may be removed by extended contact of certain chemicals with the dye. To permanently prevent the removal of the dye, a sealer is applied over the dye to prevent any such materials from contacting the dye. The sealer is comprised of an aliphatic urethane mixed with the alcohol xylol that also includes ultraviolet light resistant properties to prevent the dye from fading over time.
