Do you mean Prochem Stone Seal or Proseal. My advice is to go with the first. It is invisible so you may want to source a water based cour enhancing impregnator if he would like it darkening a little. On the ceramics it will do more for the grout lines as it can't penetrate glazed tiles.

Because it will bring out the colour of the slate.it does make it look better.
