I would try some nanoscrub to see if you can remove the offending marks. If there are any resinous marks from the wrap material, you may need a combination of naonscrub and Sealer and Coating Remover (put the SCR down first, neat, leave for 30 minutes minimum, then add some nanoscrub and scrub well. Mop up the dirty solution then rinse. Come back and let us know how you get on.

My tiles now also have a haze which looks terrible. Can anything be done to remove the haze or has the sealer locked in the haze? Any advice or help would be much appriciated.

They came with a plastic on them like glad wrap. I removed the plastic and cleaned the tiles with a tile cleaner and then we sealed the tiles. The tiles have left marks on my floor from the trolley when we moved in three days after we sealed the tiles. We have since had the tiles we thought stripped and sealed again but the problem has come back. My tiles look terrible they always look dirty and dull nothing like they should. This has upset me i just don;t know what to do. I need help. These tiles have been such a problem that i sometimes reget not putting in polished floors instead, but i can;t do this now so I have to find a solution to my big problem.
