Topic: Re: Stand and Seal Health Problems

I suppose manufacturers have realized that folks these days want simple, they want fast, they want easy, they don't want to put forth any more effort than is absolutely necessary and they can't imagine the thought of getting their hands dirty so what could be easier than a spray-on product.

I think Bill is correct about his evaporation theory. If the product evaporates, then it evaporates. I don't know how a manufacturer could train that sealer to distinguish between a tile surface and a grout surface.

Chuck I think most of today's grout sealers are about 20% solids only, the rest is a carrier of some description. In the case of an aerosol if the product contains twenty percent solids then the remaining 80% must also contain some propellant thereby further diluting the product. That's my conjecture also.

But hey - what do I know?
