It is becoming a more common practice for porcelain tile manufacturers to apply a wax coating to the surface of unglazed, honed and polished porcelain tile. This nano (nanotechnology) coating is applied at the factory, before the tiles are packaged and shipped.The purpose of this coating has been debated since it first started showing up on imported porcelain tile. One concept is that the coating is applied to protect the tile surface from mars and scratches that may occur during transportation. These treatments are commonly referred to as “transit coatings”. Another concept is that the treatment acts as a sealer, filling in the micro-pores of the porcelain, thus protecting the tiles from staining during the grouting process.
