Black Grout??

[PTB]

Evening folks
Can anyone give me advice regarding grout?? I'm putting up black tiles around my bath and shower and was intending to use black grout. I've heard some people say that black grout is very hard to keep black and will usually turn grey after application. Should I therefore be looking to use a dark graphite colour instead??? Will that stay dark in colour?? I've also been told about the aerosol spray that you can apply to stop moisture getting into the grout. Would this help??
Thanks.​

What I would do before grouting around the bath and shower tray with a dark grout is mask up with polythene...

I'd use Kerapoxy black (epoxy grout) all the way, it's a good black

as above epoxy grout is the best way to go ,maybe a little bit harder to use but you will be happier with the result

Never had a problem with Mapei ultracolour black..

Kerapoxy is no harder to use than normal cement based grout in my opinion.
Aside from the extra costs of washboy floats, I find it easier, faster and better.
(also more profitable - but that's a different story)

No problem's with Mapei and I've just used Weber Joint Pro in black and was very good to use with great results....
