The question is as above........
I have a customer who is determined to have white floor grout
White floor grouts that I have used in the past(long time ago)have tended not to be the white........no names.
Any recommendations for the whitest available, and a grout sealer while we're on about it!
TIA

Mapei Blanca 100 is what I used last time, once dried very white! Was a spray sealer I used but can't remember make, got it from CTD. I always try to get customer away from white grout on floors. I have been back to that floor for another job and still looks fine, 2 years now!

I try to stick to using Mapei UCP, but the one(and only) time I used the white I was not impressed with the shade, like I say many years ago.

Yes it looked quite greyish when first done but after 24 hours and all water had dried out it was very white!

What about Mapei epoxy? Kerapoxy, Very easy to use, just plenty and plenty of clean water that's what I have used lately

Isomat Smalto 1-8. White grout.
Takes couple of days to dry out completely, but super white.
It also has a porcelain effect finish, which means it dries with a slight sheen.
It's also all the anti whatever's you need for a bathroom.
Used it earlier this year on some bookmatch and it was whiter than the tile.
They use crushed white marble as aggregates.
Acorn Ceramics (Mike Mansell) may be able to help, he's a stockist now.
Comes in 2,4,20kg bags.
I've taken an image to see if I can show the sheen, not sure how successfully it'll translate on here tho.

Isomat is a sponsor, can you not order from them directly?

Yes of course Ian, I was just giving an alternative source. Reason being is that because they are still relatively new here they don't have the shipping rates that some more established companies do.
They need more guys to try their products to get it moving and reduce shipping costs.
It's a shame, their products are first class, and that is a genuine opinion.
But I live 20 mins away, for me it's not a problem, and I've been using them since Jan this year.
But I also get that some members may think there may be other reasons I'm happy to promote their products.
Believe me, I can't be arsed to lie about work! Haha
