Hi everyone
I have tried sealing my indian stone with the lithofin sealer plus .
I have approx 50m2 and it is about 10months old
I applied with 6 inch roller but a lot of it dried very patchy.
I went over it again with s brush mainly on the bits that looked dry but they still have an uneven finish . About 70 percent is perfect and for some reason it only seems to be the red ones that are affected. I don't want to keep just putting more on
Any advice greatly appreciated
Thanks

Jonathan

Hi Oz

I had to buy some more sealer and basically went over it again with a hand held brush to get in all the lumps and bumps
I have some parts almost 4 coats
It was still s bit patchy even after that. Not sure if the stone had water in it but it seems to have called down now and I am much happy with the appearance compared before.
The only other thing I did not anticipate was now water just sits on the stone and dries to a sort of salt stain ...what can you do
