I always caution people to not use this type of finish outside as it is much more effective indoors.
Water & the elements outside are the enemy when it comes to any clay bodied terracotta tiles.
After removing all the existing sealer we deep cleaned the raw tile and lert them dry out completely,then we sealed the raw tecate pavers with a much more durable water proofing sealer that is actually made for outdoor tile.
This sealer does not leave a shine but instead keeps the tile natural looking but protected.

    There’s tools and flooring equipment you can use to strip the old sealer and literally one machine that sucks up all the residue it’s like a wet vac with a large squeegee it’s just alot of manual labor that can be saved and the job could be done more efficiently

    I am getting 210 square feet of raw satillo tile. After receiving it, I am hand washing each tile using a tile sponge and water to remove all dust and loose clay from each tile and let them dry at least24 hours. I will then use Ole' satillo tile sealer (buy online at home depot) and I will spray or mop top, bottom and, sides and let dry 24 hours and then repeat. These two sealer coats will prevent floor lament and grout to seap into the tile . I then lay the tile. I then grout the tile. I then put 2 more coats of sealer. Then I use Ole' Floor Polish over the sealer to get a fresh polished look with NO buffing required. Ole' Floor Polish is also an on-line only product from Home Depot.
