Tile glaze after grouting - TilersForums.com

[ocall1919]

Guys,

When you finish your grouting. Go over the surface with a wash boy. There is still a glaze on glossy tiles.
My question is do you leave that for the customer or stay to clean it all several time?

I’m finding that trying to clean it too much is just making the grout worse.

how do you go about this?

It’s just a case of perseverance mike. Wash a couple times and leave grout to set up. Or as you say you’ll just mark to grout trying to buff.

Do you leave any haze on the tiled before leaving? Or is the room sparkling when you go

Normally all done before i leave but if grout is too soft and i know the haze will be minimal, I’ll return the next day to finish
