Grout without a Float

Post by r055c »

Hi All,

i had a number of tiles loose in the shower (4 to be precise), these have now been successfully taken off and secured back in place with more tile adhesive.

I don't plan on doing any more tiling for the foreseeable future so don't really want to go and buy a grouting float so was curious if there is an alternative method i could use?

So, not spread nationwide like their advertising suggests?
