BAL Bal Grout Swatches....

[On one]

Much as I can'knock Bal for the speed in which they sent out these grout swatches(I only rang up yesterday morning.
I only wanted 1! Not 5!
On a sidenote surely there must be more colour variation than this?

try Ardex swatches, they send 5 at a time as well and are handy to have to leave with customers.
they do a bigger colour variation.

I am looking to switch to Bal grout as I was very impressed with the usability of MM2 .
Yes, MM2 and user friendly in the same sentence!

 

[J Sid]

do they do a good selection of colour match grouts?

I have used MM2 for years but now go for a combination of either Grout 3000 and Isomat.

Seems like Bal do a more comprehensive range of coloured grouts,but you pay for the privilege....£26 a 5kg bag (Topps)

I really wanted to like tilemaster grout when I first used it but found it was quite slow setting in comparison to MM2 and on porcelain it was way too long.

I prefer less choice . Grey , white , ivory , that's all you used to need . Some of the slightly olders may say that is one or two too many

It is not until you put grout swatches up to a tile,that you realise how much slight shade differences in the tile/grout matters.

So they discounted the grout and clagged it onto the sponge!

 

[Boggs]

Yeah, they used to be 99p.
I blame Brexit.

You better not use gunmetal then, by all reports that is likely to be various shades of grey
