How Do You Install Grout

Let the grout set for 15 to 30 minutes, and wipe up the excess grout with a dense grout sponge soaked in water. (If you think it’s going to take you longer than 30 minutes to grout all of the tiles and be ready to move onto cleanup, you may have to work in smaller sections.)

How long leave grout before wiping?

How do you get grout to stick?

Push the grout into the joint using the float. Hold the float at a 45-degree angle and wipe away excess grout so the grout is flush with the top of the tile. Don’t worry about a film on top of the tile. Wait 15 or 20 minutes until the grout in the joint is pretty firm and stiff.
