Grout, whats the difference?

wifeforlife

I have bought some grey grout but it says floor grout. I needed it for the walls, I have black tiles and white grout just isnt going to match, can I use this grout or should I return it and get proper wall tile grout?

I just want my kitchen to be beautiful lol

I would use proper wall grout, floor grout can be a bit rough and could scratch your wall tiles when being applied. You can get colouring for grout.

Buy the right stuff.

Floor grout is a different mix (not as fine). Is it worth spoiling your newly tiled walls for the small price of packet of grout?

I always use the mantra "Don't spoil it for an 'apath a tar" (Spoken in a traditional Yorkshire accent btw!)

Thanks, I had thought it was the right stuff but didnt realise till I got home, I hate going to homebase so was trying to save a journey back. Will change it in the morning and wait another 3 months for my tiler to arrive lol

Thanks for replying
