Grout Haze

[jgw1]

Hi all,

I laid my slate tiles, sealed with Lithfin Slate seal then grouted with BAL widejoint flexible last night.

Got a fair bit of grout haze. A trial with a wet sponge this morning dried back with the haze a smidgeon less. So I think it will come off - eventually.

Any tips on removing the haze, is it just elbow grease and a coarse sponge.

A lint free t towel, dry, in a buffing motion should do the trick providing the tiles were sealed prior to grouting, and thus the haze hasnt been sealed in, using a wet anything will just make the haze wet again, and look like its gone, but when it dries it will reappear.

Cheers, they were sealed before and the sealant left to dry for 24 hours. Time to break out a cloth and a tub of elbow grease.

Just found out that the grout I used was grey and a charcoal is available - may have looked better. never mind.
