FAQs

Can this be used on shower floor grout?

Yes, it is water-resistant, but ensure the grout is completely dry before application and allow adequate drying time before using the shower.

Will this work on silicone caulk?

No, this product is not designed for silicone sealant and will not adhere correctly to it.

How long does the ink take to dry?

The ink is fast-drying, but it is recommended to wait at least 30 to 60 minutes for it to set properly before exposing it to water.

Is the ink permanent?

The ink is designed to be fade-resistant and water-resistant for a durable, long-term cosmetic refresh.

Can I use it on colored grout?

It is intended to restore grout; you should test it on a hidden area first to see if the grey shade matches your desired outcome.

Troubleshooting

Ink is not flowing to the tip

Ensure you have shaken the pen thoroughly and continue pressing the tip vertically onto a scrap surface to prime the nib.

Ink is streaking or uneven

Clean the grout line again to remove residual surface oils or dirt, and ensure the grout is completely dry before re-applying.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To achieve a professional finish, follow these preparation steps:

  1. Clean: Ensure grout lines are entirely free of soap scum, grease, and debris. Use a mild cleaner and allow the area to dry completely.
  2. Prime: Shake the marker well with the cap on. Press the tip onto a scrap piece of paper or cardboard repeatedly until the ink flows consistently.
  3. Apply: Gently run the chisel tip along the grout joint. Use light, steady pressure. Do not over-apply.
  4. Dry: Allow the ink to dry fully before exposing the area to water or steam.

Important Note: This product is strictly for cement-based grout lines. Do not attempt to use this on silicone sealant, as the ink will not adhere properly.
