Hi there,
My first post here. I have read a couple of threads on the patchy black grout issues other have had. But not sure what remedy to use to fix my grey patches. Think I need gresian 2000 grey away!
Basically Ive got black mosaic tiles with black grout in the bathroom.
Im no pro tiler but the grout went on ok a couple of years ago when i did the job. Though i may have rushed a little towards the end of it!?!?
Anyway, around the shower where they get the wettest, the grout is fine and the black colour is even. all other areas the grout is patchy in areas. more charcoal grey than black.
Ive read about this aqua mix colourant and enrich and seal. But theres no way im going along hundreds of grout lines with this stuff unless its okay touching the tile surface???
I presume this discolouration has been caused by either effloresence and/or the grout being over wetted when wiping off after grouting??
So, short of applying another grout coat over these dodgy areas, what can i do to get an even black colour.
I liked the olive oil test someone mentioned and had previosuly wondered if such an oil exisited to put onto grout and tiles. Presume thats what the enrich and seal is maybe??
Any help much much appreciated!!
