White Grout That Stays White? - TilersForums.com

[Ryan Dale]

Hi all,

I'm looking for a white grout that stays white (within reason) for some floor tiles we want to have laid.

I have heard about epoxy grout, but I've also heard that it's mega expensive!

What is the price of epoxy grout in comparison to normal grout please? Are there any other options we could consider?

Thanks very much in advance

Ryan

Hi and welcome to the forum Ryan!

Look here

Resin will certainly maintain its colour, but not the easiest of products to use.

It would be nice if u could introduce yourself and tell us a bit about what's going on.
Then we can advise depending on your experience and so on.

I know ardex does hybrid epoxy grout that you handle like standard one.

It's a myth though. Just slightly easier. Still an epoxy and not a DIY job.

Use Ltp grout sealer. Helps protect the grout.

It has to be epoxy. Kerapoxy CQ would be my choice.
Buy a proper epoxy float, emulsifying pads and follow instructions carefully. DO NOT take short cuts.

Use Ltp grout sealer. Helps protect the grout.

Sealers are ok for a while but never last more than a few months. Unless you constantly clean and re-seal.

Ardex EG8 for me as well. >>>> ARDEX EG 8 - Grouts & Silicones 7 : Ardex

the simplest: white cement grouting.
when dry, apply fugafresca Mapei

Agreed! The simplest solution. If you can't get fugafresca, try universeal grout colourant.

Used the ardex EG 8 on my utility, great stuff ( I'm in DIY section)
Or a suitable grout protector for cementisiouse grout,should last several years if applied and maintained correctly .
