Tools Needed

Mixing Trowel, Rubber Sqeegee

Materials Needed

Grout, Mixing Bucket, Tile Spacers, Bucket (with CLEAN water), Sponge.

Step 1: Mixing the Grout

Put some water in your mixing bucket. Add the grout a bit at a time and mix until you get a nice creamy consistency. Leave for 5 minutes before applying.

Step 2: Applying the Grout

Using your trowel, scoop some grout onto your squeegee. Apply this to the face of the tiles and work it into all of the joints. Make sure you really push it into all of the joints so you don’t get any air pockets. Once you’ve covered an area, wipe off any excess. Continue until you’ve covered the whole wall. Leave for 10 – 15 minutes.

Step 3: Cleaning Up

Take your damp sponge and wipe over the tiles to take off any grout residue. Keep your sponge flat against the tiles so you don’t dig any grout out of the joints. Wash the sponge out regularly. Cover the whole wall and leave for 5 minutes. Repeat this process and leave for 30 minutes to an hour.

Step 4: Polishing Up

Take a dry, soft cloth and polish up the tiles to a clean shine.
