Operation process

Precautions
Keep the tile gap clean. Before filling the joint, clean the dirt in the gap of the tile and keep it dry. If the dirt in the gap is filled without treatment, it will affect the service life and effect of the Kastar tile grout.
Keep the construction environment dry. After the tile is laid, it takes a while to evaporate and dry the water in the gap. If the construction environment is too humid, the evaporation of water will penetrate into the un-cured Kastar tile grout, which will affect the grout effect.
Grout before the ceiling. The bathroom will generally be suspended for better use. Since some of the wall tiles will be pressed when the ceiling is suspended, if the grout is first suspended, there will be a situation where the junction leaks the Kastar tile grout. Therefore, it is recommended to grout before the ceiling, so that the wall and ceiling junction will not affect the grout effect.
Don’t step on the grout before it totally cured。When the Kastar tile grout material is not dry, do not step on it to prevent it from getting on your feet and affect the grout effect.
