Best and Worst grout

Tilers Forums Official Sponsors

Not keen on Ultra grout because it seems to dry far to quick and is a pig to mix.
Weber Pro limestone for natural stone floors has taken 2-4 days to go off sometimes!!

Tile master 3000 in any colour seems to be the 'dogs jacobs'
It also has the benefit of being versatile... can use nearly everywhere!
 
Worst Bal Micromax 2, best Evostik/Bostik SGS (also cheapest). Bostik grouts are some of the best to work with and very overlooked

Agree 100% with the micromax 2 comment, horrific stuff, the original was great, then they decided to ruin it along with a 50% price hike!!! I've also found super flex wide joint to be very difficult to wash off the past few times I've used it.
 
YThe best white grout - Sovergein.
The best Jasmin and black - Mapei.
Tend to be using Ardex colours more as supplied by others - ok but go off quick.
Trying to get 'others' to use tilemaster as comments are favourable.

The worst are - Granfix (patchy and different colours/batches).
Bal - limestone ( patchy ).
Weber - really bad - but adhesive very good!
 
I will use anything except granfix and Larsen rubbish I like nicobond but really love bal
super flex on the floor find it easy to work with
 
Bit of a mixture from experience.
White wall grout - Bal microflex
Stone, cream coloured tiles - Benfer schomberg off white
Epoxy stone - Mapei Jasmine
Epoxy white, black, - NC Starlike
Grey floors - Mapei ultracolour
