White Epoxy Grout for a Kitchen Floor

[NickSwann]

My first post so Hi everyone.

After some advice please.

I have light grey ceramic floor tiles and white kitchen units.

I have re-grouted the floor with white standard cement based grout, you can guess that this doesn't last long until it becomes stained and I have to re-grout.

I have tried sealing the grout lines and a complete tile (test area) with an epoxy sealant but it turns the grout grey, I really want to stick with white grout.

So I am looking at white epoxy grout, I am told it is difficult to apply and very expensive, I'm not too bothered about the cost as long as it lasts and doesn't stain.

Has anyone got any experience of epoxy floor grout? and if so how has it worn? how easy is it to apply? etc... and what are the best products? I have found a couple but would apppreciate any recommendations.

thanks

Nick

Have you tried a white colourant. White will need more maintenance.

No Aqua, I have only used white cement based grout which absorbs stains easily and looks a mess after a few months, so I'm looking for a white epoxy,
