How do you fix the chip with the color seal? Take the color seal bottle and squeeze the product onto the chip. Then, take your finger and spread it back and forth inside the chip, which is how you fill in the chip. Then, take your Grout Shield chamois or towel and wipe off the excess. Then, apply more color seal to fill in the chip even more. The chip will begin to look less noticeably than it did before, especially if you choose a color that is an exact match. As the color seal dries, it will match the tile even more. read more
