Always follow instructions carefully. Unlike most grouts, the more water the better when cleaning the tiles immediately after grouting. Frequently change the water, sponge and felt pad during cleaning. Do not cover the grouted surface with cloth or other materials during the curing process. This could cause condensation which is not recommended.
