How Do You Color White Grout To Match Old Grout?
Grout is a building material used for sealing the spaces between tiles. Sanded grout is a form of grout containing Portland cement, sand and other additives providing a porous surface after it is dried. This means that you can adjust its final appearance if you are unsatisfied, although extra steps may be needed to avoid accidental staining. Premixed, or nonsanded, grout is made up of latex-based mixes that give a very smooth result because they are less porous than sanded grouts and do not contain cement. Set your tiles using the method best suited for your project and let the mortar or glue set. It is possible to use tinted grout for home or art projects as long as you use the proper form of grout for each. It is not recommended that premixed grout should be used for small joints under 1/16 of an inch and not be used in flooring projects. If you are using a porous unsealed tile such as terracotta, it is a good idea to seal the tile before using the grout with a pre-sealer or top coat
