Cool Mapei Glitter Grout

Hi everyone

Mapei launched Glitter Grout at the recent Home Building show at the NEC.

Gold and Silver "sparkley bits" are now available with 22 other colours to follow!!!!! In conjunction with the 6 base colours of the Kerapoxy Design System to choose from the effects available are almost endless.

Up to 10% of the glitter can be added to the Kerapoxy Design System epoxy grout to provide a unique sparkle finish.

Details will follow shortly on our website.

I used some of this gear a while back. It glowed in the dark and was used to grout nosing recesses in the fire escapes of a building I worked on.

GOOD GEAR!!!!

What type of tiles would you use glitter grout with? I mean, using glitter grout in a bathroom with cheapo white 15x15 standard tiles in a grid pattern would look a wee bit pretentious

Thumbs up Re: Mapei Glitter Grout

Yes at last someone else saw that great cafe bar in Sorrento with gold glitter grout on the outside and inside was quite something else as well. I took a picture of it, (sad muppet some might say), and even have it on my mobile. I have mentioned it to customers who would like it but until now could not find it, all the tile merchants round here look at me as if I have two heads when I ask "can you get glitter grout".

Have emailed mapei to find out my nearest stockist.

Cheers !

ps.

Send some pictures to info@tilersforums.co.uk or post them on here and I'll start a new thread with the title 'mapei glitter grout pictures' and we'll see if we can get a bunch more found and added to it.

I think it sounds really smart looking, for all the right sort of tile being fitted these days. (design-wise)

DOCK can you tell us if glitter grout is safe to put on our chest as the lasses round bolton will want a longer lasting shine than normal cosmetics allow and with mapei's legendary colours they could choose how dark a tan they want
