Haha.well i was looking for some reviews about this product.as the contractor supply it.and the grout and grey rapid set they are verry bad.specialy the grout is the worst ever finish i ever seen.strugle to get it right.
 
Good to have an update!
It’s often an issue when you use a product that is not your usual - it can take a bit of getting the mix right.
Been doing doing this for over 15 years and been true loads of diferent products in diferent countrys as well and belive me this grout from Larsen is the worst i ever used.but got to crack on as the guy is only using this product.lol

It’s a subjective issue though. What one tiler likes another dislikes. I’am just trying to get a balanced discussion on the merits of different products as I’d hate to think your comment could bring down a multinational company that has been producing tiling products longer than you have been tiling.
