Anybody used Mapei Ultracolor Plus Grout
I'm tiling the walls of a bathroom using normal ceramic (not porcelain) tiles and have bought some Mapei Ultracolor Plus Grout from Tile
Giant.
Reading the instructions however I'm a bit concerned that because I'm not an experienced tiler it will dry before I can cover any
reasonable area as the pot life is ony 20 minutes.
Would I be better buying something else which would give me more working time?
I went for the Ultracolour Plus as it is mould resistant which the other Mapei grouts don't appear to be.
Any advice would be appreciated.
John.

Best to only cover a small area say 3 metres at a time and sponge off before it sets hard. The more you do the quicker you get.
Remember to add water to grout not other way round as you will end up with too much in the pot to use quickly. Good luck.

I've personally used this grout many times and working on a small area at a time is a must. 2-3 metres square is about right and you should find
that by the time you have finished filling it's ready to sponge over. Its very easy to mix their coloured grouts to make your own custo
