white subway backsplash -- what grout color?
Comments (2)I used white grout with an additive (can't remember what it was called) to reduce grout staining-so far no stains. I also chose a machine made tile to reduce the grout line size because I preferred a more monochromatic look. Here is the link. Here is a link that might be useful: White subway white grout...See MoreGrout for subway tile backsplash
Comments (3)I have an antique white paint on the walls which have a warm almost yellow hue to them for warmth and to tie in with the counters. I was thinking gray because I like the look without grout (shadowed) which appears gray. Also my home is old so I like the idea of having some of the materials appear original if possible. The sanded grout from TEC says it is ok for 1/16 on the back if the bag?? My concern is the glaze on the surface of the tile. I'd hard to mess if up now that its stuck to my wall! My appliances are SS and the counters do have gray in them as well, which is very hard to see in thick picture, sorry. Is there any benefits to choosing sanded or unsanded vs the other if both are ok? I always thought unsanded for less than 1/8 too, but the manufacturer disagrees....See MoreUnsanded or Sanded Grout for Subway Tile Backsplash
Comments (1)Tec Power Grout or another urethane grout woud be my suggestion. It never needs sealing, and won't scratch most stone or glass. It also won't have the more difficult cleanup of epoxy, or the yellowing issue....See MorePlease help identify this Grout Color for White Subway Tile Backsplash
Comments (2)I know that yogurt commercial picture is tough to really see the grout. But any suggestions for a good light tan or simply off white grout color to use?...See Moreskunst2017
