Hello, any photos of the floor? I have recently finished cleaning and sealing some 240mtrs of indian sand stone in a house over two floors. Celler had swimming pool etc and ground floor the kitchen etc etc. I cleaned it with a hard floor tool on my carpet cleaner the sealed it with Libron sealer - some slabs needed 8 coats !!!

Hello, I doubt if you will need to use brick acid on them, start by using hard floor cleaner, water and a scrubbing brush then towel the water off.
