Mapei do a product called Fuga Fresca. We used the 114 (Anthracite) over Jasmin grout and it worked pretty well. It is almost like a paint

The only mistake we made was when gouting the display the first time. I mixed the grout to runny and it sunk. When we applied the Fuga Fresca, we couldn't apply enough to give it a proper covering (I'm talking maybe 3mm depth). The Fuga Fresca is like a paint, so if you have to apply it thick (I.E 3mm) it doesn't work so well. But that was user error
