  • Hold the float at a 90° angle and pull it at a 45° angle diagonally across the joints and tile to avoid pulling out the material. .
  • Ensure that joint is filled completely, and grout is not just sitting on top
  • Remove access material on tiles within 60 minutes with help of wet sponge

Cleaning & Finishing

  • Please take right/ complete proportion of all components (base, hardener & filler). Any change in proportion would not give correct product performance.
  • Do not apply on wet/damp tile joints. Always apply on completely dry tile joints.
  • Do not over-mix the material. Over-mixing can reduce the pot life
  • Apply masking tapes along tile joints while working on unglazed floor tiles, porous tiles & natural stones, tiles with matt glaze or textured surfaces.
  • While cleaning, change water frequently. Change cleaning cloth/ sponge when they are impregnated with grout
  • Protect from direct rainfall/ foot traffic for at least 24 hours
