    Spectralock 1 is my absolute favorite grout because it's like epoxy but without the mess!! Subscribe for more tips and visit homerepairtutor.com for online home improvement courses

    Spectrlock only comes in slightly sanded mix. No unsanded option. Great product. Durability of epoxy without mixing. Pot time is short. Great video!

    Just grouted my shower with it yesterday! I love that it's premixed and has epoxy like benefits!

    I just finished installation of a porcelain tile floor now I need to grout. I already purchased spectra LLC but I’ve never used premixed grout so this video is perfect timing. Great video. I plan on viewing it a dozen more times as I begin each step. Thanks

    I’ve used it 3 times and I set my watch at ten minutes. It works for me, but I’m probably pushing the limit

    Would you recommend this for a tiled shower floor or an epoxy like Spectralock epoxy? Didn't know if one was more stain resistant and more waterproof. I'm about to do my 2x2 shower floor. Thanks!

    So...I just finished watching your older video about using Laticrete Spectralock Epoxy Grout. Is this a better option for more novice grout replacers like myself? Does this version of Spectralock (Spectralock 1) also repel stains and hold up maintenance free like the epoxy does? Looking to be as maintenance free as possible, but definitely not a pro.

    How does that grout compare to mapie’s flexcolor? Flexcolor is gritty, is that the same ?

  • @NZ-jf8ct

    What color of grout did you use? Thanks!

    What is the TroXell for and how do you use it? Is it mixed in with the grout or applied before or what? I am going to try this as my bathroom is in need of a regrouting. Thanks for the great video.

    • @HomeRepairTutor

      That’s the grout float, the brand name. I’m using Laticrete Spectralock 1. It’s a great premixed grout

    Prefer the full Spectralock Pro three part epoxy. Never had a single issue with it even on my own house (17 years now).

    I used Mapei Ultracolor and have to say it SUCKED, still has color issues.

    • @Chanmantroop10
      @Chanmantroop10 Před rokem

      it cures nice and and hard but you're right about color, especially for wet areas. colour is inconsistent

  • @shotgun_jack5650
    @shotgun_jack5650 Před rokem

    I can pack the joints but then I just smoke em and forget to grout the tile 🤷‍♂️ lol

    that seems super annoying having to switch between floating and sponging every 5 minutes, turns a 30 minute job into hours

  • @juzoli
    @juzoli Před 5 měsíci

    5 minutes work time is definitely NOT beginner friendly. If you are beginner, choose a different product.
