Kitchen floor grout / prevent staining... - TilersForums.com

[AndrewPC123]

I plan on using Mapei Ultracolour Plus on a kitchen floor. Is there anything I can do to prevent staining etc... for example if Spag Bol gets dropped, or cooking oil gets spilt...?

Any additives you can reccommend?

Ta.

hi andrew what colour are you using

 

[AndrewPC123]

It's 113 - Gris Cemento

It's meant to be a darkish grey. I'm asking because a pan of spag bol was dropped this weekend...

use epoxy

or you could apply a sealer afterwards. sealguard is a popular one now and is easy to use, it comes in a spray can

 

[Thespanishtiler]

if you want your grout to never stain and stay the same colour forever use epoxy

Epoxy grout is great in cooking areas, it's designed to take a battering but if your not a pro it's not an easy grout to use.

 

[Muse2k8]

If it's DIY just use sealant. Pretty much does the same job.

Thanks for the advice. I've seen Sealguard somewhere before so I'll give that a try.
