Best Practices for Bostik Hydroment Plus Polymer-Modified Ceramic Tile Grout
-
Surface Preparation
Ensure tile is firmly set and mortar completely dry EY487before grouting. Remove all spacers, debris or adhesive from tile joints. Application of a grout release agent may be necessary to prevent staining of tile. NOTE: It is the user’s responsibility to determine the condition and suitability of all surfaces before application.
-
Application
Lightly moisten tile with a clean, damp sponge before grouting. Spread grout over face of the tile using a rubber grout float. Work grout back and forth at a 45° angle to the face of the tile to ensure complete filling of joints. Remove excess grout by holding rubber float at a 90° angle working diagonally across face of the tile.
-
Mixing
In a clean pail add 25 lbs. of grout to a 1/2 gallon of clean potable water. Mix only with water. Mix slowly to a smooth, paste-like consistency. Let stand for 15 minutes and remix to eliminate streaks and ensure uniform color. Grout can be re-mixed during its pot life for improved workability. DO NOT RETEMPER BY ADDING MORE WATER.
-
Clean-Up
Remove excess Hydroment Plus polymer-modified grout from hands and tools with a sponge and clean water immediately after use. Removal of cured grout is very difficult.
