Reigate
After annoying the guys in my local CTD for about an hour looking at samples and agonising on colour, I decided on Mapei Moon white for the kitchen tiles which looked a pleasant light grey in the samples. But on the wall it looks basically white, and mostly just looks like dirty white grout. It looked perfect when wet, but now dry I hate it. They're mosaic herringbone tiles, so removing the grout and redoing may well finish me off. I've tried a bit but it's impossible and I seem to risk damaging the tile too easily.

So I'm looking at grout stain to bring the colour closer to the warm light beigey grey I'd hoped for. I've used one by Aqua Mix once before many years ago, but there weren't many options back then and whilst the product was good there weren't many colour choices. I see there are a lot of companies making grout stain now but again, some brands only do a small selection of colours like Aqua Mix (with the couple of greys they usually have being more on the cooler bluer side than I want). So was looking for some advice. The two brands who seem to have a wider selection of colours are Mapei Fuga Fresca, and Rustoleum but I can't find any reviews of either. So any recommendations or reviews of any grout stain products with a wide colour selection please?

CTD are restructuring due to finances. They've closed some stores and things.

I would be worried they may not be around to support any guarantee for the full length of them. 10 years on adhesives.

Is there another tile shop around you?
