Black Grout NIGHTMARE!!

[Martino]

I personally think all black grout should be banned prom production!....

Used some Bal Black Grout today on some gloss black 200x100 tiles.....customers choice...

Tiling in a kitchen...luckily they had dark worktops, but white units and skirting.....takes FOR EVER to clean up!...

Also looks like i have been wearing black nail varnish!...

Anyone else think Black grout should be banned?.....

'What is it good for......Absolutly NOTHING...lol'

glad you said that thought it was just me , takes twice as long with all the cleaning up.

Tiled a bathroom for a landlord in 6 x 6's whites with black grout recently in an attempt to stop the grout turning black, horrible stuff and my float is stained.

i normally point towards anthracite grout...wear latex gloves and have a float,sponge and bucket kept aside for this colour its mucgh easier to work with than black also and not too far away colour wise

got 35 sq metre wet room to grout with ultracolor anthracite on sat, talked customer out of black. Yippee!

its a nightmere to work with no matter who makes it, i always put 20 notes on job to replace squeegy and hydro.
