Cleaning – after work

Remove the excess grout from the surface and then from the edges of the tiles. This is the primary cleaning method. Hold the float at a straight angle and pull it at a slightly tilted angle to remove the excess grout. Avoid pulling out material from the grout joint. You can remove the excess grout using a damp sponge or towel. Do not make the towel too wet, as it will remove the application. It is a secondary cleaning process.

How to get the right consistency of Laticrete PERMACOLOR SELECT NS grout base?

 

  • Mixing the grout base with PERMACOLOR color kit and getting the right consistency for application is tricky. Here are a few considerations before preparing the mixture for  Laticrete unsanded grout.
  • Always ensure that the quantity of water is ideal for grout mix and therefore read the instruction manual carefully. 
  • Color packs are compatible with pre-measured water, approximately 1 quart/gallon per one color pack. The one-color pack is sufficient for 12.5 lbs of the base.
  • Continuous stirring of the pigmentated water is essential. Bring the solution to full suspension before starting the application.
  • Stirring is a technique – mix the solution for a minute, then stop for five minutes and let the pigment do the magic. This technique helps in giving optimum settling time and workability for the grout.
  • Work fast once the grout has come in the right consistency. Avoid adding extra water if the grout seems to thicken and becomes stiff. 
  • To remove stiffness and lumpiness of grout slowly, whip the mix and fold with a margin trowel. This continuous motion will return the grout to the right consistency.
  • Always ensure that the water you use is pure and at the right temperature. Too warm water can ruin the entire grout mix. Remember that the grout is quick setting, and therefore, warm water will make it worse to work.
  • Make sure you follow the instructions thoroughly. If you fail to mix the pigment, a thin water-like substance settles, and it will become impossible to get the consistency back.
