Hi all,
Can i use white grout with a grey or black adhesive for floor and wall tiles and if so which do you recommend?
Many thanks in advance

Colour of grout is a personal choice decided between your and your customer. It depends on the effect they are looking for. I have used BAL and Ardex grouts and both are very good, currently I am using Mapei Utracolour Plus which seems to give excellent results but goes off a bit quick in the bucket though.

Hi grumpy . can i use white grout on a this job then if my adhesive is not white?

As long as you have cleaned the joints out nicely then you should have no problems. But for future reference it would be better to use a white adhesive.
You still need to clean the joints by the way.

did the customer as for white. i would always use grey or black as floors get dirty from feet and will discoulour the grout after time.
