Recommendations:

Encaustic Cement Tiles have rapidly gained popularity worldwide and can be seen in high-profile venues, such as the Four Seasons Hotel (Budapest). Proper sealing is critical in order to protect these tiles from freeze/thaw damage and stains. V‑SEAL concrete sealers such as TK6 NanoCoat and Industra-Coat 3520 (matte  and gloss kits available) are specifically engineered for encaustic cement tile, integrating seamlessly into the installation process and providing long-lasting protection.


For Residential applications, we recommend one coat of TK6 NanoCoat  as a grout release and one coat of TK6 NanoCoat after cleaning excess grout off the surface. For Commercial applications, we recommend an additional coat of Industra-Coat 3520 Water Based Urethane.

Suggested Product Types:
