The bathroom in our house has Saltillo tile which was installed before we
bought the house. It wasn't sealed properly and had some stains but most
particularly calcium deposits from a leaking toilet when we bought the
house. Are there any solutions to "bringing the tile back to life" so it
can be properly sealed?

Thanks.

As far as I am concerned Saltillo is the bane of floor management. Homes
require at least year maintenance, businesses sometime monthly.

Find a tile store, NOT THE BOX STORES and take some pictures with you.
Purchase the products that they recommend. I bet they will tell you to
strip the whole floor, then reseal it.
At least a weekend project depending on the area.

Plan on doing this at least once a year depending on traffic.

I have a friend who's living room needs to be done every 6 months. Bedrooms
can go a year.
two adults and two dogs is all.
