SURFACE PREPARATION
Joints to receive grout should be clean, dry, and free from standing water, grease, loosely adhering particles etc. cement laitance should be removed by mechanical means. All the areas surrounding the joints must be taped thoroughly. Ressi TG CR High Gloss is a pourable tile grout, taping should be done with the most care as cleaning this material from various tile surfaces is difficult and can also damage the tiles.
MIXING
