Professional tilers often rely on tried-and-true methods and materials to achieve perfectly white grout lines and spotless floors in minimal time.
Here are their secrets:
- Preparation is Key
Clean Thoroughly: Before grouting, ensure tiles and joints are dust-free. Use a vacuum or damp sponge to remove debris.
Use Quality Grout: Select a high-quality, pre-mixed, or fast-setting white grout.
- Efficient Mixing and Application
Consistency Matters: Mix grout to a creamy, lump-free consistency. This ensures smooth application and quick cleaning.
Apply with Precision: Use a rubber float to press grout firmly into joints. Work at a 45° angle to avoid overfilling or missing gaps.
- Speedy Cleaning
Timing is Critical: After applying grout, let it sit for 5-10 minutes (or as recommended).
Sponge Wipe: Use a slightly damp sponge to clean excess grout from tiles without disturbing the joints. Rinse the sponge frequently for best results.
