£2.05 a pint in my snooker club.....that's why IO drink so much - I am saving nearly £1.00 on every pint I have compared to the local pubs. Can save £10 some nights.....trouble is My Mrs does not seem to see it the same way...can't think why..:8:
 
use sliver sand and cement will give you a better look. clean off with water allow to harden then clean with white spirits and boiled linseed oil 60- 40 , it will bring the colour out and seal the same time,
use a clean cloth to remove access and allow to harden been doing it for years and i have tried other methods but that just dont give you the same finish

AS FOR THE GROUT BIN IT
 
Unfortunately if it’s out of date it won’t be stable , sure it will mix ,it will spread and it will set ! However every time you wash it it will revert back to a soft mix and just wash out . It’s heart breaking !
