Potential Grout Disaster!

Tilers Forums Official Sponsors

I stuccoed once baked red, I had brought the land of the tennis courts to be mixed with cement and had kneaded as a filler for tiles, were 300 square meters, had dampened cooked before grouting
 
Disaster averted! 🙂

Looks great. they do come up well. I used lots of these when I was an apprentice, they were coming from mexico and the odd one had a foot print of a chicken or a coyote in them. When you started to lay them you could see where something had run across them when they had been drying before they were fired. the customers loved them, but in the end their were that many turning up I think someone must have made a stamp and been doing them by hand.
 
Yeah used to fit a lot of the 300 X 300 Mexican floor tiles back in the 80's for SmallBome kitchens, sealing them with linseed oil and spirits.
I remember what a pain it was,
so that's why I wanted something different! Haha
I used Dry-Treat Intensifia (spelt correctly 🙂) in the end.
3 coats prior plus one after grouting with Silver sand and Portland, pointed in.
Took 1.5lts @ £62 a litre! 😱
And thanks! 🙂
