Quantity of grout required KG/M² per joint width

The coverage of the grout will vary depending upon the texture, size and thickness of the tile and the width of the grout joint.

Use the table as a general guide only.

Tools required;

• Mixing buckets & clean water
• Drill with mixing paddle
• Grout float / rubber squeegee
• Sponge & dry cloth
• Personal protective equipment

• All surfaces must be installed according to manufacturer’s instructions and relevant Australian Standard(s)
• Remove all tile spacers and lugs from the joint areas
• Ensure joints are clean, dry and free from excess adhesive as well as any other loose or contaminating material
• Ensure joints are of uniform depth and remove excess adhesive
• Make sure adhesive is completely set and dried

1. For residential indoor and outdoor areas, measure 1.1L to 1.3L of clean water into a clean bucket. For other applications see ‘Important Considerations’.
2. Slowly add Davco Elite G10 Grout into the water whilst mixing it with a mixing paddle attached to a drill.
3. Continue to mix until a smooth, lump free paste consistency is achieved.
4. Allow mixture to stand for 5 minutes.
5. Remix grout for an additional minute then the grout is ready for use.

1. Lightly dampen grout joints prior to grouting; particularly when using porous tiles or in hot conditions.
2. Work the grout in a diagonal motion using a rubber float or squeegee.
3. Ensure the grout joint is completely filled and doesn’t just sit on the top of the joint.
4. Remove excess grout from the surface of the tiles in a diagonal motion using the rubber float or squeegee.
5. Allow 10-15 minutes for the grout to firm.
6. Evenly shape the grout joints by laying a damp well wrung out sponge flat on the tile surface and lightly wiping it in a circular motion. Use a minimum amount of water to avoid shade variation, efflorescence and shrinkage.
7. Wipe off in a diagonal motion with a clean sponge. Again using a minimum amount of water to avoid shade variation, efflorescence and shrinkage.

• Allow the grout to dry for 24 hours before polishing the grout haze off the tiles with a soft dry cloth. It can then be returned to service
• Hard-to-remove haze can be cleaned with Davco Sanitized® Tile & Grout Cleaner

• Clean tools and equipment with water before the grout dries.

• Davco Elite G10 Grout shall require routine maintenance and cleaning with a neutral detergent and water.
