I'm planning on first using the stone sealer, do I use this product for cleaning, and will the protector part of it be of any use?

We only recently applied it and cannot yet tell. Having seen D. Fischer's response, we will give it a few more applications, then comment. Sorry, not much help.

I love this stuff, not only does it clean, but it protects. It removes grease smears and leaves your counter smooth and shiny. There is no left over residue. It is the only cleaner protectant I use for kitchen and bath.

Yes. Dont use if there are stones gled on. I suggest a silver cleaning cloth for that.

Yes, Suzi. This is a good maintenance cleaner for your limestone and won't strip your sealer as it's ph neutral. Please, keep in mind that this is a maintenance cleaner and not a heavy duty cleaner so if you're looking to remove mold, mildew or soap scum, you would need to use something stronger like our Ultimate Grout Cleaner or our Intensive Cleaner.

i think this is a good product for threat any leather ( sealed of course) , i´m sure this will help, i´ve use to restore my mom´s totte for example, smoth the leather and clean cracked parts

Well, I've only used the leather protector not the conditioner. So if you use the LP I think it'll be just fine because it does condition leather as well.

It will,but if you want to use this over a rub-in natural sealer depend on the type of stone and the usage.. I did not see or notice much difference when used on a previously finished,older Saltillo tile (or "Mexican tile") in a laundry room,and I'll likely go to the stone-/tile-store when I need a sealer next. But,if a table-top is all you need sealed,I believe this may be a convenient choice. (Given type of stone/ use is according to label/manufacturer instructions..)

Yes, I've used it too over outdoor stepping stones, wood items, just about everything. It is my go-to protector. Have fun!

I just use a mild dish soap and water, make sure it is rinsed well, then apply the Black Diamond. It is not a granite sealer but more of a polish. I don't use it that much because if you get water on it then part of the shine comes off and you have to do it again. To much work for me, so I do it when company is coming or having a party.

It's best to remove and start again when using two different types, water and solvent based sealer. If you are using water based on water based, it may work well, almost used as a second coat, which is common, as long as there are not opposing chemicals in the two types of sealer.Matt DenyerOwnerBrevard Outdoor Services

I have used Black Diamond Granite Sealer one time after installing our granite counter top 3 years ago. The Sealer was very easy to use....almost fun! The results were perfect! I would highly recommend it. I also use the Black Diamond cleaner almost everyday, Love that too!

we have granite with quartz. But it was recommended to us to seal the counters beforehand. It's much easier to clean the counters now. We will put more sealer on I think every 2-3 years.

I would use a good grade of silicone grease on the seals. It comes in a small container and can be purchased at a local hardware store such as ACE. I would apply it with a finger, let it sit for a few minutes and then wipe it off. This product may help, but using a rag instead of your finger will spread it around more. I use the silicone grease to coat the seals on the outside compartments to keep them from sticking as well. This is a great seal protector and lubricant, but when used with a rag, it's hard to control where it goes. I do use it on a rag for doing the back side of the seal which is in contact on opening the slide. Hope this was helpful. I would use a good grade of silicone grease on the seals.

I would not add it to the grout! But there are other grouts that have the sealer already added to it! I do not know of any products other than this sealer! It is easy to apply and it works great!

It is a sealer so it should work. It is made for stone and it does resist sauces etc. I would give it a try. The only place you could get answers is from the manufacturer. John

Hi Jo Ann,This Dupont product is the BEST for granite. To answer the question about sealer, I do the test discussed here.http://www.consumerreports.org/cro/news/2009/09/q-a-how-frequently-do-i-need-to-reseal-my-granite-kitchen-countertops/index.htmI hope this helps!Patty

Sorry. I can't say. I bought it specifically to seal granite, and it did a great job. Hope someone has an answer for you.
