weber grout - TilersForums.com

[Andy Allen]

My local tile shop have started to stock weber grout I normally use bal grout.

Dose anyone use the weber....whats it like compared to bal, how quick dose it go off......could never get on with mapie grout cause it went off so quick, do you get any efflorescence with it or patchy drying problem. ..
Anything else you can add. .
Thanks in advance

I was using mapei then i tried weber and thats the only grout i use now. No efflorescence used every color apart of white. Great to work with.

Owts better than mapei , it's dog[emoji90]

Oh and I've just been using Webber funnily enough, very good a lot like grout3000, smooth to use and goes off nicely

Used Weber wide joint a couple of times and personally i didn't like it, found it very grainy and wasn't up to the finish of Mapei grouts.

May have to try it again if everyone else is saying different!

Sovereign white.

Mapei 130 Jasmin, 132 Beige.
Bal Sandstone.
Rest - Ardurit colour range.

It's a good fine grout , no where near fast setting like UCP , so be prepared for over night hardening... The polymers can to tougher to wash off but nothing major as long as you keep an eye on it drying on tile surface... You'll be used to that with bal grouts

Used it a couple of times but didn't like it. I still prefer Mapei UCP.

Never used it my self ,but i just cant get on with mapei grouts at all I'm bal grout

Started using Weber grouts over Mapei UCP, but just couldn't get on with it. Back on UCP now for everything except white

Found the Weber seemed to take forever to go off, not one I use now...

I love it. will travel miles to get it. I use the joint pro. I also use the matching silicones which are lovely to use too. CTD do good prices for all the colours.

Wow I'm surprised a couple of people like it,it is a terrible grout
especially the grey and silver grey,I have used it and had patchy grout and efflorescence
also had tiny air bubbles all over it,and that was me mixing per instructions

 

[Sean Kelly]

I always mix it really stiff these days.

The tile shop I get all my materials from use Weber grout for a few colours such as white, jasmine, ivory and sandstone, then use Norcross for grey, anthracite, crème ect. The Weber is a very smooth grout, the Norcross is rather gritty but leaves a nice finish. Used Mapei once, and once only lol talk about the unexpected drying time it went like plastic!
