please help me choose grout for this tile...
Comments (36)Pipdog-- I worked with a company for several years doing Lord and Taylor stores on the east coast-- literally hundreds of thousands of square feet of marble-- crema marfil marble with absolute black granite borders. It was ALL grouted with sanded grout. I'll take it a step further. It was done using an old method of grouting, where dry grout is rubbed on the joints, and in this case, with a buffing machine, and nothing scratched. Additionally, crema marfil is notoriously soft, even as marble goes. No problem. Someone really has to TRY to scratch marble. Not saying it can't be done. But you'd have to really try. Also, as for touching up "down the road"-- you can do that within the first 72 hours. After that, the joints must be atleast 2/3 empty, or you take a chance on the new grout flaking off, because it won't bond to the old grout....See MoreHelp with Bleached Wood grout with a lighter tile-Pictures please!
Comments (14)I wasn't the OP, but I chimed in on this thread with a photo of the sample grouts against the tile we were considering. That tile is HEATH CERAMICS MODERN BASICS M18 CHALK; Size: 3”X6”. For grout we went with the Custom Building Products Fusion Pro; color: Bleached Wood #545 and could not be happier. I also made a sample board with Bleached Wood, Oyster Gray and one other alternative color grout and that gave me the confidence to move forward with Bleached Wood. Finished look below....See MorePlease help me choose a grout color for my laundry room tiles :)
Comments (7)It is impossible to do this on line and you need actual samples to be sure what dried grout will look like. This is mock up of Mapei Alabaster. I would look at backs and sides of this tile and get close to that color....See MorePlease help! Tile installer sealed our slate with grout haze visible
