All

I have just laid a couple of flagstones as a hearth with a wood burner to go above
The flagstones are new cut and around 2 months old, the area is around 2 sq metres with 1 join straight down the centre and exposed at the front to the living room. Can anyone recommend an appropriate sealant to protect against the heat and soot and how long should I wait before I treating the stones.

Many thanks
Andy

I think you're better off with a wax-based 'polish' for internal usage. Golvpolish seems to be the most popular, but I'm not sure how (or if) it copes with heat.

Hagesan's products (including Golvpolish) are distributed by Topp's Tiles, so, if you comtact your local branch, they should be able to advise you on what would be most suitable.
