    I want to change the grout colour on my kitchen tiles

    I have just had my kitchen walls tiled and I don't like the colour of the grout. I would prefer it to be pink or green (tiles are white). Could I just get a felt-tipped pen and go over the grout? Does anyone know of a valid reason why this wouldn't work?
