travertine tiles for kitchen countertop

I am wanting to us travertine tiles for my kitchen countertops, but they have pits/holes, I was wondering if there is a product to fill the pits/holes with something clear that is safe for the kitchen, but can also be sealed i like the look of the pits/holes, please help.

 

Dear Bernie:

Yep! Clear latex-based siliconized caulking material. Liquid-proof, stain-less, see-through, easy to apply and to clean off. What more do you want?!... J   

If you can't find it locally, try this website: http://www.inland-inc.com/

Now remember, it's never too early to think about the proper maintenance of your stone. The issue of what you'll be doing day in and day out to your stone is – as it should be intuitive – vastly more important than its sealing (if and when possible and/or advisable) and it's all too often neglected. As you can tell by reading many of this site's postings, you're not likely to get good information about routine care from your dealer or installer. Don't become another statistic!
