High performance, fast setting, mould-resistant and water-repellent grout from the world’s largest manufacturer of adhesives, grouts, sealants and specialty products for the building industry. Also, tiles are installed by hand, so expecting every grout line to be identical down the to 1/32nd inch might be asking a bit much.Cement-based grouts, such as MAPEI's Ultracolor Plus FA grout, will not effectively bond to themselves or other grout types. This question would probably be better asked to the company that manufactures the grout you’re using. This means that the shrinkage that will occur after the grout dries and cures, won’t have an effect on the durability of the tile. Regarding the differences in the grout width, we recommend you bear in mind that there is a variation of 1/32nd of an inch in some of your grout lines. It’s more durable than traditional grout, and doesn’t pose the risk of scratching, that sanded grout does.

ULTRACOLOR PLUS is a high performance, quick-setting and drying cementitious mortarfor grouting joints up to 20 mm wide. Cement-based grouts, such as MAPEI's Keracolor S or Ultracolor Plus FA grouts, will not effectively bond to themselves. Comparison testing of MAPEI Flexcolor CQ versus traditional Portland-cement grout has verified that MAPEI Flexcolor CQ is 30% more cost-efficient (based on typical rates of installers) and requires 65% less time to install.Regarding the levelness of the tiles, if you can’t see visually (not by touching them) that the tiles are not perfectly level, then it’s probably not worth redoing parts of the installation, which is what you’d have to do to change this. If a sanded appearance is desired, a colored-quartz (CQ) grout, such as MAPEI Flexcolor ® CQ, can sometimes be used successfully, but a test panel should be grouted and inspected for unacceptable scratching before grouting. However, instead of being using the reaction between cement and water, these grouting options use advanced chemical compounds, consisting of a base and an activator.

The added aggregate material makes sanded grout much more durable than unsanded grout, for one simple reason. MAPEI's Ultracolor ® Plus FA grout is a better choice for pool installations where submersion can be completed after 72 hours of grouting when the tiles are installed with an appropriate rapid- setting mortar. MAPEI Flexcolor CQ is a professional-grade, ready-to-use specialty grout for precision commercial and residential installations with porcelain, ceramic and natural-stone tiles.

MAPEI Flexcolor CQ can be used to grout interior/exterior tile, and its dense composition helps to prevent water-based stains by providing water repellency to the grout surface. You can easily spread it onto a vertical surface, and will stick there with no issue as you work to force it into grout lines. A final note is that you won’t be able to use just any sanded grout if you’re working on extremely large tile joints.
