Do you mean the Fuga Fresca? I have used it and thought it was pretty good. I have never used the other so unfortuantely can't offer a comparison

So it is the Fuga Fresca

Like I said, I have not tried the Aqua Mix and honestly have no idea what it is like. The Fuga Fresca is like a paint. Worked well on the things I tested it on. We tried the 130 (Jasmine) and 114 (Anthracite). We used it on a few displays, have had no problems with it as of yet, but it hasn't been exposed to "real" conditions

hi all ! iam new to using mapei fuga fresca, just herd off it from you guys to be honest ! so iam i correct in thinking this would save me from re-grouting my bathroom walls? ive about 20mtrs on the walls . i was going to rake out the old ivory grout 2mm joints ,(ceramic tiles) and regrout with white grout to brightin the place up before i sell it ? if so does it look cheep and nasty wen applyed?

Never tried the fuga but will give it a try when required, getting hold of it might be a bit more difficult

Go to Mapei.com and search for Fuga Fresca

Edit: ohhh it doesn't work like I thought it did

Edit 2: Hang on it does work how i thought, this could have saved me a rip up and re-install, Is this new as Mapei didn't say anything about this when I rang them with a problem a few months ago

I can't comment on Aqua Mix Colorant but the fugafresca is really good .It has a anti bacterial agent in it that helps to keep its colour once applied and dried. you can go over all old grout applications and it really does make the job look like new. this is a real easy way to refresh your grout or change the colour

Is this the kind of thing that you would keep in stock Adam

I Do keep the more popular colours in stock like white,jasmine,grey etc but I would have to order in the more obscure colours which usually takes a few days.

Thanks for that Adam
