Today I called in to look at a job booked in for Monday,a small ensuite(for a plumbing co) on my way home. Turns out the customer has gone and bought absolutely everything from a shed,probs Topps judging by the choice of unnecessary ancillaries and over ordering.
Thing is the grout is MM2 in white for 18m2 of white metro's with a 2mm joint. Is MM2 going to give me grief for this small joint and is white MM2 actually white(should I swap it for Superflex?)
 
MM2 white is very off-white - darker than UCP or many others actually.
Not bad to use but the proper choice would be White BAL Microflex.
A better white grout you'll never find.
 
If it is darker than UCP.......we are talking nearly grey!
A case of the shed trying to push slow stock??????
 
It is like Mapei's Silver grey! Suits some white tiles though.
Not sure about slow stock, Topp's monkeys just do whatever the chief monkeys tell them to.
With the BAL/Topps relationship I guess MM2 takes precedent over Microflex.

Tbh, most Topps staff would sell Birds custard powder as grout if they were told to.
 
Sooooo it might actually suit the Metros'......we'll see. What about getting the 2mm joint right tho,considering MM2 is suitable for joints up to 20mm!
 
Metros and MM2, had the unfortunate experience of this combination last week. Absolutely horrible. (20m White metros grey grout)
