Thanks for the ideas. We have used the Wand and even with major modifications, it still is a problem. I can see why so many floors aren't sealed, a good thing for use, as sealing is a real problem with no good tool to use. I am not sure we have room for a Racatac in our vans and so many of our areas are tight fits.

I did find a tool called Injectamate. It is one that some carpet cleaners use to inject chemicals into and beneath carpets.  There is an extension tool that is supposed to allow a steady flow of sealer through a 3 or 4 ft tube, down to the grout.  It has different style brushes and pads for various size grout lines. But I can't find one in Houston and hate to buy and it be unsuitable for use, like the wand.

I will keep you posted on my search.

There is such a thing as a grout stick that lets you seal grout from a standing position. I never liked it because it was very difficult to control the amount of sealer that you were applying so it was almost useless. I second Georgias recommendation of a racatac with a chest supporter. I use a applicator with a joam wheel called speedwheel to apply it. With the racatac your face is close to the floora nd you can really move quick while still having good control.

On StonecareCentral.com there is a great thing I love...the rac-atack (I like it with the chest support.)  I hope I spelled it correctly.  In a large space it makes life a lot easier but smaller spaces it is easier to move around with less stuff.  Also grout perfect has some really terrific tools and I believe that they have lots of tricks of the trade to make things go faster, easier and with quality.

We do a lot of grout sealing but can't find a reliable tool that allows us to get the sealant down on the grout line without getting on hands and knees.

Any suggestions?
