Default Vinyl floor tiles

I've read the posts on vinyl floor tiles, and learned a lot actually. I have
vinyl floor tiles in the kitchen and bath, that were here when I bought this
house, and I have a question.
Is there any way to put anything on them, to 'seal' it. They are still in
great shape, it looks like the previous owner installed them just before
selling. But, I end up spending most weekends hand cleaning the floor,
because I'm afraid water will seep between them.. if that makes sense.
Is there anything I can put down on them or something?
I haven't used any wax products yet.. because I don't want them to turn
yellow. But, will a wax product form a barrier over the edges of the tiles?
Thanks in advance,
lucy

If the tiles are installed properly the distance between them is so
small that water hardly has a chance to get in, and whatever water is
there would evaporate rather than seep downward. I would guess that
something like Mop and Glow would provide a little more protection.
