Grout Epoxy Grout

[Wishiwasatoptiler]

Hi, been looking g a job today, smallish kitchen floor, the owner wants glitter grout, they've seen it online. Looked into it and it turns out to be an epoxy grout. Never used it and wondered -is there any special pecaution for the tiles, other than the norm sealer, dose it go off like standard grout, how much harder to work with it than standard grout. The tile is black 600x300 polished porcelain if that has any bearing.
Any help, tips would be great
Thanks

I used it a few times with no problem just wearing nitrile gloves. I eventually developed a sensitivity to it. Just because youve been ok initially doesnt mean you wont eventually react to it. The stuff can burn your skin if its left to dry on it FFS.
Its all in the product Spec sheets.
I hate it and it hates me lol.
Any rash and or itchiness just get out of the room and get yourself protected.
Anti-histamine eye drops are handy to have around just incase.
Once your sensitised theres no going back.
Enclosed spaces make it worse for obvious reasons.
The hybrid epoxies are no different as they still have resin in them.

Ive always thought the packaging should have stronger labeling warning how nasty it is. Just having an 'Irritant' warning just isnt enough.

More like toxic, is this one of those products that will kill in 30 years....as in asbestos.
