But, if you want to do it make sure to test it on you're tile before you lay the sealant, so that you will know the sealant doesn't leave stains on the tiles."

Answered on 26th Mar 2020 - Member since Jun 2019 - report"I think sure you need grout between the tiles. This would be sealed at the wall so it doesn't allow the water to get through."
