Choosing The Right Other Grouting Accessories

When selecting grouting accessories from MyToolShed.co.uk, consider these important factors:

• Application type – grout pens are ideal for precision work on narrow grout lines, whilst grout revivers typically cover larger areas more quickly
• Grout colour – ensure the product matches your existing grout colour or select white for universal bathroom applications
• Surface location – check products are suitable for wet areas like showers if required, with appropriate water and mould resistance
• Coverage area – calculate the linear metreage of grout lines to determine how many pens or tubes you'll need
• Durability requirements – consider products with enhanced washability for high-traffic or frequently cleaned areas
• Drying time – factor in curing times, especially important for commercial projects with tight deadlines

Frequently Asked Questions

How long do grout pens and revivers last?

Quality grout pens typically maintain their appearance for 12-18 months in domestic bathrooms and kitchens with regular cleaning. Durability depends on usage frequency, cleaning products used, and moisture exposure. High-traffic commercial areas may require more frequent reapplication.

Can I use grout pens over mouldy grout?

No, always treat and remove any mould growth before applying grout pens or revivers. Clean the grout thoroughly with appropriate mould remover, allow to dry completely, then apply the grouting accessory for best adhesion and longest-lasting results.

Are these products suitable for floor tiles?

Whilst primarily designed for wall tiles, some grout accessories can be used on floor tiles in low-traffic areas. However, floor grout experiences more wear from foot traffic and cleaning, so traditional regrouting often provides more durable results for heavily used floor surfaces.
