Product Information
Full details
The Ronseal One Coat Grout Pen is designed for homeowners and DIY enthusiasts looking to refresh tired, stained, or discoloured grout lines without the need for extensive renovation. Its primary benefit is the ability to achieve a bright, white, waterproof finish with a single application, saving both time and effort compared to traditional re-grouting. One notable caveat is that the product requires a 24-hour drying period before it can be exposed to water, meaning bathroom or kitchen areas must remain dry during the curing process.

FAQs
How long does the Ronseal Grout Pen take to dry?
The product requires approximately 24 hours to fully cure and become waterproof.
Can I use this on bathroom floors?
While it can be used on floors, it is better suited for walls as floor grout experiences more foot traffic and abrasion, which may cause the finish to wear off sooner.
Is this product suitable for black or grey grout?
No, this specific product is designed for white grout and will not provide the intended finish on dark-coloured grout.
Do I need to remove the old grout first?
No, this is a cosmetic touch-up product designed to be applied directly over existing, structurally sound grout.
Can this be used on silicone sealant?
No, this pen is formulated for grout. It will not adhere properly to silicone or flexible rubber-based sealants.
How do I store the pen when not in use?
Store the pen with the cap firmly replaced in a cool, dry place to prevent the tip from drying out.
Troubleshooting
Ink not flowing from the tip
Ensure you have shaken the pen thoroughly and press the tip vertically against a hard surface repeatedly to prime the applicator.
Visible streaks or uneven coverage
Ensure the grout surface is completely dry and free of soap residue before applying; clean thoroughly and allow to dry for several hours before re-applying.
Excess product on the tile face
Keep a damp cloth nearby and wipe away any accidental overflow immediately; once the product dries, it is much harder to remove from smooth tile surfaces.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To prepare for application, ensure the grout surface is completely clean and free of grease or debris. Shake the pen well before use to ensure the pigment is mixed. For optimal results, press the tip down onto a scrap piece of paper until the ink flows consistently before moving to your tiles. Regarding compatibility, this pen is intended for standard interior wall tiles. It is not recommended for exterior use or for floors subjected to heavy scrubbing or high-traffic wear, as the pigment may degrade faster. To care for the finished surface, avoid harsh chemical cleaners, as these can wear down the waterproof coating prematurely. Clean the surrounding tiles with a mild detergent and a soft cloth to maintain the integrity of the treated grout lines.
