    Default regrout floor help !

    hi, iam half way through regrouting a floor which was recently layed ( NOT BY ME ) and for some reason has 2 different colours ? origional coulour was grey (ultra flexi premium grey grout) then 75% of its been over grouted by with what looks like beige / ivory ! now ive already raked out a quarter of the floor and wish id never started. ive commited myself to finishing the job and was wondering if you guys no of any easier ways to complete this regrout without removing any more of the grout ? the customer is not fussed on the final coulour ! ie beige or grey ! .... any ideas ?

    thanks enduro ! have you used this before and is the finish acceptable ? so would it be ok to grout the bits ive raked out and apply the coulourant once dry to the whole floor ? the only problem i have is that its got to be completed by monday , so not sure if any local stores stock this ?

    Yes i have used it, it is new here in the Uk and you can only get it from csi grout as the local stores will not have it.
