Before grouting, make sure that the installation the adhesive has set and released most of its moisture. The joints should not be wet during work. 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. Work in small areas to have better control on removing the excess grout from joints and surface by moving the squeeze diagonally to the grout lines. Ensure that joint is filled completely, and grout is not just sitting on top
Cleaning & Finishing
Clean off the surplus grout from tile joints and tiles within 30-45 minutes/ before the product dries. Initially use a rough textured sponge dampened with water to remove the grout residue. Use the damp sponge in a circular motion and keep it relative to the tile surface to achieve the flush joint & taking care not to drag grout from the joints. Clean off any light residue of tile grout left on the tile surface using CIS stain O tile cleaner without disturbing the joint finish.
Precautions & Note
- 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
- Do not allow grout to harden on the face of the tile. Clean promptly.
- While cleaning change frequently the water
- Change cleaning cloth/sponge when they are impregnated with grout
- Do not allow water to flow/run into un-grouted joints while application
Protect from direct rainfall/ foot traffic for at least 24 hours In case of grouting natural stones, it is necessary to execute a preliminary test, in order to verify the absorption of color by the stone slabs.
