This is my first thread, so hopefully I'm observing all the rules...
I am struggling to grout tumbled edge tiles. I've got two issues, firstly the grout won't stay in the joins very well - if I leave it long enough to go off so that the sponge doesn't wipe it all away, then that means it's also too dry to remove with ease. Secondly, where we have grouted successfully, the joins between the tiles are starting to appear.
These issues are best explained with pics.
Here's the tiles...butted up to one another (tried leaving a space, didn't help).
A tile on its own...
And the awful looking grouting to date...
The grout I'm using is BAL superflex
The floor has 70mm of screed, so I'm assuming there's no movement in play here.
Really appreciate any ideas before we do toouch more.
