PREP WORK – Clean the joints and Vacuum the grout lines, then scrape any protruding grout using a stiff putty knife and vacuum again. Don't scrape too hard or you may chip the tile glazing on your how to grout tile project.

TAPE OFF THE TILE BEFORE GROUTING - For easier cleanup, tape off painted walls to protect them from grout. Also tape off trim or inset tiles that feature imprinted patterns with crevices.

MIX THE GROUT BY HAND - Mix the grout with a margin trowel until all the powder is dissolved. Roll the bucket frequently while mixing. Scrape the bottom to make sure all the grout is mixed.

A TILER'S BEST FRIEND - Margin trowel is used for mixing grout and thin-set, scraping out joints, cleaning buckets and tools, spreading mayonnaise, flipping pancakes, etc. Mix your grout to the consistency of creamy peanut butter.

LOAD THE GROUT FLOAT - Tip the bucket toward you. Drag some grout “up the slope,” then scoop it onto the float. This technique is used by professionals which very useful.

REMOVING TILE GROUT - Simplify ceramic tile grout removal by using a carbide-grit blade in a reciprocating saw or an oscillating tool. Both speed up this tough, tedious chore.

SPREAD THE GROUT - Smear the grout diagonally across the tile to force it deep into the joints and prevent it from being sucked back out as your float slides along. Always grout the walls first for this how to grout tile project, and after they're finished, the floor. That'll keep you from messing up a finished floor.

CLEAN OFF EXCESS GROUT - Remove the bulk of the grout by wiping in a serpentine motion. This helps evenly distribute the grout and prevents the grout float edge from digging into grout lines.               

SPONGE THE SURFACE - Sweep a damp (not wet!) sponge diagonally across the tile. Rinse your sponge often and repeat until you're left with a thin haze. Once the grout has started to harden (20 to 30 minutes), begin sponging. Don't use just any sponge, especially one from the kitchen; choose a “hydrophilic” (water-loving) sponge.

TOOL THE GROUT LINES - Depress the sponge with your index finger and smooth out high or uneven grout lines. Don't push too hard. Your goal of this how to grout tile project is grout joints all the same shape and depth.

TOWEL OFF THE HAZE - After the grout film has dried, polish away the haze with a cotton towel or, better yet, a microfiber towel. After all the joints have been dressed, step away for about a half hour to let the surface dry and form a haze

KEEP SOME GROUT FOR REPAIRS - It's a good idea to hold on to a small quantity of unused grout for future touch-ups as you discover how to grout tile.

CAULK ALL INSIDE CORNERS - Use a grouting caulk on inside corners after grouting and cleaning.
