Red Devil 0438 House & Home Restore Tile Grout, 5 Fl. Oz. , White

I have that horrible old fashioned kind of tile on my kitchen counter that everyone hates, but there you go. After years of zealous overscrubbing, the grout eventually disappeared, leaving hideous black spaces between the tiles. This wasn't really a problem, because I just slid the George Foreman over about a foot or two and covered the bad part. But the grout, like my ex-husband's hairline, just kept receding. Now, I'm not one of those fanatics who use the kitchen for "cooking" and stuff like that. Even the George Foreman is decorative, not useful. I only go ito the room because I use the oven for storing sweaters. Anyway, a couple of weeks ago, I made a wrong turn off of the dining room and found myself in the kitchen again. I was appalled at the state of the grout. Okay, people who have seen my kitchen will find it amusing that I just found this one thing to appall me, but we're not discussing anything but grout right now, so back off. Anyway, I was looking up Groutering in the Yellow Pages when I suddenly had a thought (and keep the funny remarks to yourself thanks). How difficult can it be to fix this. Maybe I could do it myself! Turns out, grouters have been putting a big one over on us all these years. Grout repair is not only easy, it is fun. I sent away for the Red Devil 0438 EZ Squeeze Tile Grout, White, 5 Ounce, plus some stuff called Grout Sealer, because it said on the Grout Sealer page that I should. (By the way, don't you think it would be more fun if they called it EZ Squeezy?) The directions mentioned several tools which I do not have, but I improvised, using a screwdriver, nutpick, old steak knife and meat skewer to dig out all the old grout in the section under repair. I cleaned the counter really well, squeezed in the grout, smoothed it out with a butter knife and index finger, and let it set. Then I added some grout sealer and Viola! I had clean, white grout. Me. I was a grouter. It's been a good three weeks and, while some of the grout has fallen out, most stayed in place, and the fallen out spots were no problem to re-repair and are holding up just fine. The directions were EZ to understand and EZ to follow and just about foolproof. But here's the thing: It turns out, I enjoy spending time in the kitchen. There is a big white thing in the middle of where I replaced the tile, and water comes out of it. Hot AND cold. No, really! And I'm pretty sure it's free! Plus, if you open that bottom door on the big square ice making machine, you can keep food inside. It has shelves and everything, and the cutest little light that comes on when you open the door. There is also a fire machine, but I'm not going to mess with that. No Sir. I know first hand what the George Foreman can do to human flesh, and it only shoots fire and flames once in a while.

The tube winder didn't work. Then one third of the way through, the grout was impossible to squeeze out. So I cut the tube in half and scooped it out, adding drops of water to maintain consistency. Why 4 stars? Despite the tube problems, the grout was incredibly easy to apply evenly. It also wiped off the tiles easily with a damp sponge. Finally, it has held up after several showers and tile cleanings. I'll never again use the powder version.

Excellent product. Easy to use, works as described. So glad I found this product on Amazon, it was exactly what I was needing. One note-its a nice bright white, so if you don't want white, you'll have to search for something else. I needed white though, so was happy to see this was a pure, bright white color.

Great color and texture. I used this in lieu of normal sanded grout because I only had a small area to do (specifically, in between the sheets of vinyl peel and stick tile). I used a good quality foam brush (Jenny brand) and I did have to wet the foam periodically as this grout is a little thicker than I wanted. It dried much more quickly than typical grout. The roll-up device was very helpful, as removing/buffing grout haze is physically exhausting and I needed to reserve my strength. However, it did cover up the instructions (see photo if you're looking for them).

I had to buy 3 of these to re-grout one of my bathrooms. The grout feels more like a paste than a grout so I would not use it unless you are going over existing grout because it doesn’t have the texture of standard grout. The worst part is the packaging. Super hard to squeeze it out and 2 of the 3 I bought popped from the top creating holes so the product inside dried faster and product was coming out of the hole. I had to tape over the holes to keep going. Probably easier to save yourself the time and hassle and just get premixed grout in a tub.

This product was easy to use and the consistency was as it should be. I saw other reviews that said it was impossible to squeeze out which almost led to me not ordering this product. It should be known that, per the instructions, you are supposed to cut the end of the tube with scissors. Anyone who has a difficult time squeezing the product through the end merely didn’t cut enough off the end...it’s user error. The easy squeeze mechanism works brilliantly. I wish these things came on the end of toothpaste and really all squeeze products!

After opening, only water came out of the tube. Nothing came out after the water even though the tube was squeezed hard. Remaining grout in tube was hard and would not move up the tube. Tried using the attached roller but it did not work. Threw the tube in the trash. Complete waste of time and money.

I thought this was a great product. This was the first time I had used it. That tube went a long way. It is easy to use and you can cut off more or less of the plastic at the tip for more or less grout pour. I wish I had bought more and I will buy more in the future. I am not sure about longevity because I just used it but it looks good for the purpose.

Not bad. handy tube for small job of replacing damaged grout between tiles. the roller thing doesn't seem to work though even with half of the tube being used.
