The use of wood stain on grout

Tile Grout high floor or counter can be changed to a different color. This is usually done when the tile is first installed. A dye or colouring is added to the wet slurry, and the color is defined as the slurry dries and sets. Grout color can also be changed after the mosaic has been installed and the grout has dried. This is done by applying a "dye". Another method, while not conventional, is to use tinted wood to change color of your grout.Difficulty: moderately EasyBroomDustpanTrisodium phosphate (TSP) BucketScrub brushHair dryerWood stainSponge brushesImpregnatorGrout sealant1
