Grouting Pen Brown wanted!!

Post by bunnysnap »

Hi,

The twit who tiled my bathroom did a beautiful job with caramel tiles and chocolate grout. It looked stunning for the five minutes before he washed with a lime solution and bleached half the colour out.

I am desperate to find a chocolate brown grout tile pen - can anyone help me please? (tiling twit no longer answers his phone) ::b

Many thanks

Ruth :dunno:

You can get grout recolourant in lots of colours, made by Aquamix, from a few sources. Its not a pen but its not difficult to apply and, being epoxy based, is an excellent, durable product.

Grout Pens = The Devils Botch Tool.
Don't even go there!!!
1st up just try & give it a kind of regrout by leaving the old grout in situ and go over it again, quite often that'll be enough to stain it back & leave a new thin top coat over the old dead easy works well with dark chocolates & blacks.
Good luck.
