why run the risk or do you enjoy removing grout:8:


i aint going to dive in headfirst , i would have a go at a test piece first and weigh the amount of glitter used , it was just an idea :smilewinkgrin:

i used to be the same trying to save money only with pies and pastrys, it was all good till you made a bad batch (butcher gave me bad pork), it cost me a lot of custom i then relised its better to just buy them ready made so if something goes wrong you just pass the complaint on, i suppose it would be the same if you mess with grout and it all goes wrong, if you messed with it the big companies would just wash their hands.

Give it a go and let us know how you get on:thumbsup:, have you used the Mapei glitter so you can compare?

I wonder if Mapei coat the glitter in anything so the grout adheres to it better? So the grout is sill one solid piece rather than thosands of ever so slightly weak spots, that's the only thing I can think of that would make it any different from normal glitter
