- Product Type
- Grout
- Application Method
- Trowel
- Curing
Cure for a minimum of 3 hours prior to exposure to regular foot traffic, Protect from rain or water immersion until thoroughly dry. Sealing of the grout once cured is not required, although compatible breathable sealers may be used to further enhance stain resistance. Follow the recommendations and instructions of the sealer manufacturer. To maintain a clean tile surface, use a neutral-pH cleaner for maintaining the floor, followed by a clean-water rinse. Do not use harsh chemicals to maintain the tile surface. Grout must be cured for at least 3 days prior to regular maintenance and cleaning.
- Caution
Freshly mixed cement, mortar, concrete or grout may cause skin injury. Avoid extended contact with skin where possible and wash exposed skin areas immediately promptly with water. If any cement or cement mixtures get into the eye, rinse immediately and repeatedly with water and get prompt medical attention. Keep out of reach of children.

- Limitations
Do not mix with latex grout additives, as this grout contains polymer additives.; Use only on surfaces which are maintained at a temperature above 10°C(50°F) and below 35°C (95°F) during application and for at least 48 hours after application.; Do not use when a highly chemical-resistant grout is required or where extra-heavy impact or abrasion resistance is required - instead, use FlexEpoxy 100, 100%-solids epoxy grout.; Some types of glazed ceramic tiles, marble, granite and marble agglomerates can be permanently stained, scratched, dulled or damaged when grouted with pigmented grout or sanded grout formulas. Do a test patch prior to installation. Check with tile manufacturer to see if pre-sealing of tile is required. As various external factors beyond Flextile's control such as general site conditions and cleanliness, water quality and quantity used in mixingand cleanup, site temperatures and humidity levels, and mixing, application &cleaning techniques may come into play, absolute color shading and texture consistency cannot be guaranteed.
- Maintenance
No maintenance is required except where damages result from unforeseen circumstances.
