Tile grout is typically used for small tiling projects, repairs or touching up joints in bathrooms, kitchens and on floors or walls. It is ideal for filling gaps between ceramic, porcelain or mosaic tiles to create a waterproof and durable finish. 

Directions for Use
1. Preparation
Clean Joints: Ensure tile joints are dry, clean and free from excess adhesive, dust or debris.
Timing: Wait at least 24–48 hours after tiling before applying grout.
Remove Spacers: Take out all plastic tile spacers. 

2. Mixing
Mix 1 kg of grout powder with approximately 250ml - 300ml of clean water (roughly a 4:1 ratio, though check specific packaging).
Add the powder to the water slowly, mixing until a smooth, thick or toothpaste-like consistency is achieved.
Let the mixture stand for 5 minutes to allow chemicals to activate then remix before use.
Use the mixed grout within 1–2 hours. 

3. Application
Using a rubber grout float or squeegee, apply the grout diagonally across the tiles, pressing it firmly into the joints to ensure they are completely filled.
Use the edge of the float to remove excess grout from the tile surface, again moving diagonally to avoid pulling grout out of the joints. 

4. Cleaning & Finishing
After about 10–15 minutes (once the grout feels firm in the joints), use a damp sponge (not wet) to clean the tile surfaces, working in a circular motion.
Rinse the sponge frequently in clean water and wipe diagonally to shape the joints and remove the remaining haze.
Once fully dried (after 24 hours), wipe the tiles with a clean, dry cloth to remove any remaining haze. 

5. Curing & Sealing
Keep the grout protected from dirt and moisture for at least 24 hours.
If in a shower area, wait 3 days before exposing to water.
Seal the grout if necessary to prevent stains especially in high-moisture areas. 

Key Tips
1. Work in small sections: This prevents the grout from drying on the tile before you can wipe it off.
2. Do not use too much water: Too much water during mixing or cleaning can weaken the grout and cause color inconsistencies.
3. Color check: Grout may dry lighter than its wet appearance.
