FAQs

What surfaces is this grout paint suitable for?

It is designed for standard tile grout found in kitchens and bathrooms.

How much area can I cover with one 125ml bottle?

The product states 500m coverage, which should be sufficient for a considerable area, but actual coverage can vary based on grout line width and application thickness.

Do I need to seal the grout before applying the paint?

It is generally recommended that the grout is clean and dry. If your grout is very porous, a sealant might help with adhesion, but test in a small area first.

Can I use this on exterior tiles?

This product is specified for kitchens and bathrooms, suggesting it is intended for interior use. Consult the manufacturer for exterior suitability.

How long does the paint take to dry?

Drying times can vary. It's best to allow the first coat to dry completely as per instructions before applying subsequent coats or using the area.

Is this paint suitable for very old or crumbly grout?

The paint is best for restoring existing grout. For heavily damaged or crumbling grout, repair or replacement might be necessary before painting.

What type of brush should I use?

A suitable width brush is recommended. A small, stiff-bristled brush often works well for precise application along grout lines.

Troubleshooting

Paint is too thick or streaky

Ensure the paint is thoroughly stirred. If still too thick, a very small amount of water (as per manufacturer recommendation, if any) might be added, but test in an inconspicuous area first. Apply thinner coats for a smoother finish.

Paint is not adhering to the grout

The grout may not have been properly cleaned or dried before application. Remove the paint and re-clean the grout, ensuring it is completely dry before reapplying.

Uneven color application

Apply paint in consistent, thin layers. Allow adequate drying time between coats. Use a steady hand and a suitable brush for precise application.

Accidental paint on tiles

Wipe away excess paint from tile surfaces immediately with a damp cloth before it dries. Dried paint may require careful scraping with a plastic scraper or blade.
