Epoxy Grout
DESCRIPTION:
Dr. Wall Care is an Epoxy grout is quite different from cementitious grout and epoxy emulsion grout. Made from epoxy resins, hardeners and an aggregate fillers powder, the grout is extremely hard, durable, and nearly stains proof. Often times the bond between tiles is stronger than the tile itself.
The Dr. Wall Care Epoxy Grout is extremely durable and almost completely stains proof. Regular grout isn't waterproof, so unlike epoxy grout, it can absorb water when it's wet and stain easily. ... Although it has plenty of benefits, note that epoxy grout is more difficult to work with than regular grout.
Dr. Wall Care Epoxy Grout is made from two different resins mixed with filler, making it very waterproof and bettered suited to harsher cleaning products. Epoxy thin sets offer greater bond strength and chemical resistance than cementitious grouts.
Although it has plenty of benefits, note that epoxy grout is more difficult to work with than regular grout. It also tends to look like plastic, which some homeowners don't like.
Regular grout is very easy to shape in outside corners where tile wraps around a wall, curb or shower niche. It is harder to achieve the same effect with epoxy grout, since it takes a little longer to set up in the grout joint.
I find it makes the most sense to grout a bathroom in three to five rounds. Epoxy grout sets quickly, so you don't want to mix all the grout for the bathroom and then rush it into place.
Dr. Wall Care Epoxy grout haze or residue on tile surfaces has a glossy sheen. Make sure your installer cleans your tile properly before and after grouting to avoid this.
The time necessary to clean the tile and the high price tag (it often costs five to ten times more than regular grout) can make some installers hesitant to work with epoxy grout.
