Before applying TilePro Grout, make sure that tile is set and that the adhesive has completely dried. Usually, wall joints between the tiles can be grouted after 4-8 hours and floor joints after 24 hours (standard tile adhesives) or 4-6 hours (fast-setting tile adhesives). All joints to receive TilePro Grout should be well cleaned, dry, free from loose material, stain, oil or grease, any compounds affecting the bond Remove dust or other contaminants with an air blower. Do not clean tiles with acid cleaners. All loose particles of tile adhesive in the joint must be physically removed to at least 2/3 of the tile thickness. When the tiles are very porous & installed in very hot areas, wet the joints with clean water

Typical Applications
- For Indoor and Outdoor use
- For Walls, Floors and Ceilings
- For Dry and Wet areas (example: bathrooms, kitchen, toilets, balconies)
- For swimming pools, pool surrounds, wet rooms
- For joint widths from 1-10mm
- For all ceramic tiles, porcelain, glass & marble mosaic tiles
- For all non-moisture-sensitive stone material (natural stones, marble, granite, agglomerates, etc.)
- In public and commercial areas subject to frequent or permanent wetness
Benefits
- Very Low VOC emission designed tile grout
- Water-repellent, very low water absorption
- Stain resistance
- Very good abrasion resistance
- Designed to repel dirt and clean easily
Fill the joints completely with adequate rubber grout rubber float, squeegee or a rubber sided or a plastic trowel, spread the mix to substrate evenly and in sufficient quantity. Best result can be obtained by filling the joints with grout and flushing the surface of the tile using a hard rubber float, working diagonally across the joints to both fill and compact the joints. All excess grout should be removed with same rubber float, while still fresh.
Movement joints, corner joints (floor/wall) and connection joints (fixtures/tiles, wood/tiles) may be sealed with the elastic silicone joint sealant from SealPro range
