bepgof 20 Report post Posted July 20, 2010 (edited) Hi Just wondering if it is possible to set the tiles so close there is hardly any grout lines? then no grouting problem no? Get those tiles/stones as big as possible to minimise the "eye sore". Edited July 20, 2010 by bepgof Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bepgof 20 Report post Posted July 20, 2010 (edited) Impossible ! min can go 1/16inch. Like I say, they need to breathe and moisture need to escape for expansion and contraction. Hello, home application lah! No direct hot sun and rain or snow. Delta T < 2 deg C within 12 hours. Ceramic & homogeneous tiles' edges got curve. Get the "stones" = marble & granite have no curves can minimise the gap. Stones are porous enough all "moisture" evaporate through stones surface itself. Read permissibility index for different materials. Polypropylene then water particles most difficult to pass through, sake as SAN material, all plastic!.

romanyao 0 Report post Posted January 9, 2011 my newly done toilet wall tile grout is originally white. And now it is starting to change color into brown even though the toilet is UNUSED. The contractor say every toilet he done is like that. grout will confirm change color, nothing he can do. is it true? Just used a product called Mei Feng Ji which is commonly used in China, it has many colors to chose and the advertisement say it will never to be dirty or black, will let you know the effect several months later. it is like silicone and easy to do DIY work, the seller say it can be applied on those old houses to renew the grout.
