Kevin,
First of all I would not have used TK 6 on this application. I would have
used StoneLoc probably the matte finish. If after the stoneloc cures if you
are concerned with slip you can run a 250 honing powder over it to give it
some texture and improve the slip.
Do not apply slip resist to the TG 6 finish.

Kevin,
How did you apply the TK-6? The area that was wet, was it only the area with
the TK-6 or a larger area including the bare flagstone?
Both areas I'd imagine were more slippery wet than dry (if both areas were
wet).

information. FYI I used the TK-6 low sheen from Richard James Chemical
yesterday on some outdoor flagstone 10 sq ft test area before doing the
whole job. Although I pleased with the result while finishing the job today
the portion that I sealed yesterday got wet and was really slippery when I
walked on it. I called Rebecca at Richard James chemical about the issue and
she is looking into if I can add slip resistant to the TK6. I will pass on
more info as I receive it. As for now I removed the TK-6 with alkaline
stripper and left the surface just cleaned for now. I did not want the
liability of my elderly couple slipping and falling and getting hurt.
