Does the stone have any kind of sealer/wax on it?

Just a high alkaline and maybe a bit of honing powder.

Hi James

I would recommend to use damp microcleaning mop pads to deep clean these tiles
Just pre spray with a neutral ph floor cleaner for amazing results
then recommend to maintain with damp microfiber floor cloths.

Regards

That floor is limestone with a honed finish and needs honing with Honing Powder or diamonds and then sealing end of.

It requires no cleaners whatsoever!
