Hi,

I have a shower with natural slate walls. I've been told the slate should be re-sealed every year or so. I thought, how hard could it be? But when I read the label of the stuff the installer used to seal it origianally--Miracle 511 Porous Plus--it sounds like something used for chemical warfare.

Can anyone recommend a product friendlier to the environment (and to the humans in it)? Also, if I find such a product, how do I know it will work over the original stuff?

Thanks for any advice you all can give.
