Product Information

Full details

The SolaDirect Grout Marker Pen is the ideal tool for homeowners and DIY enthusiasts looking to refresh discolored or stained grout lines in bathrooms and kitchens without the hassle of full re-grouting. This pen delivers a clean, bright white finish that is both water and fade-resistant, making it a perfect quick-fix solution for aesthetic touch-ups. Note that while it excels on cement-based grout, it is not designed for use on flexible silicone sealants and requires a clean, dry surface to bond effectively.

FAQs

Can I use this on shower floors?

Yes, it is water-resistant, but ensure the grout is perfectly clean and dry, and allow ample time to cure before the first post-application shower.

Will this work on colored grout?

The pen provides an opaque white coating, so it will effectively cover most dark or discolored grout colors.

Can I use this on silicone caulk around the tub?

No, this product is not intended for use on silicone sealant and will not adhere properly to the flexible surface.

How long does one pen last?

Longevity depends on the width of your grout lines, but the 2-pack provides enough ink for an average-sized kitchen backsplash or bathroom floor.

Is it easy to remove if I make a mistake?

If the ink is still wet, you can wipe it off with a damp cloth; once it cures, it is water-resistant and requires a solvent for removal.

Troubleshooting

Ink is not flowing to the tip

Ensure the cap was on while shaking the pen, then continue to press the tip against a flat surface repeatedly until the ink saturates the nib.

The finish looks streaky

Apply a second light coat once the first has dried completely; avoid over-saturating the line while the ink is still wet.

The marker is not sticking to the joint

The surface is likely still damp or contains soap/grease residue; clean the area with a degreaser and allow it to dry for at least 24 hours.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

  1. Preparation: Clean the target area thoroughly to remove dirt, grease, or residue. The grout MUST be dry before beginning.
  2. Activation: Shake the pen vigorously with the cap on to mix the ink. Press the nib firmly on a piece of scrap paper or cardboard until the tip saturates with ink.
  3. Application: Apply the marker in light, steady passes along the grout line. Do not apply heavy pressure, as this can flood the area.
  4. Drying: Allow the marker to dry fully before introducing water. Depending on humidity, this usually takes a few hours.
  5. Compatibility Check: Always test on an inconspicuous spot (like behind a toilet or inside a cupboard) to ensure the white matches your tile aesthetic.
