Question
I recently had bluestone set in mortar in a large area in front of my house. When it is wet, it is beautiful. When dry, it looks mostly white. Anything I can do about this?
Maxine,
I am sorry for the delay. We had an electrical fire in our showroom on Thursday and I have been dealing with the clean-up.
I suggest you use an enhancing sealer like HMK S42 see link:

You can order this through Stonecareonline.org 406-880-7866
Hope this helps
