Hi peeps
Im working on a job at the mo that requires black epoxy grout, deep joy :mad2:.
Wasnt looking forward to cleaning the stuff but I was given a tip by another tiler that has made it so much easier.
Instead of getting through umpteen celulose sponges I now use flannelette (cotton winceyette) rags. I wrap it around a sponge and just keep rinsing it, it works a treat, so much easier and quicker. A way that was suggested was to cut a piece about 1m2, wet it, lay it on the wall and drag it up the wall. Ive not yet tried that way.
As the material has a raised nap it collects the grout, and isnt smeary.
I have a newbie helping me on the job and she thought I'd lost the plot 'cos I was so exicited that the tip worked and made it easier. Its her first epoxy job!
If you dont have any old flannelette sheets to cut up its dead cheap in a material shop.
