Washing Epoxy Grout
Epoxy grout can be scary 😧 It's tough to know when to start the clean up process. Each Brand of Epoxy sets up a bit differently, but the method in which to start removing the excess grout is the same:
- Use a dry finger and touch the grout joint, if you can easily pull out the grout; Waite another 10 minutes
- What your looking for is the ability to mold the grout without pulling a lot of the grout out of joint
- Its always best to test an area by lightly washing with a wet scrubby pad, if you can work the joint and not pull anything out of joint, your ready to go
- Ardex WA is quite a different grout than most other epoxies. It stays sticky for a long time
- This particular shower I waited a little over an hour before cleaning up

😆 👍
That is a nice-looking shower. Really like the nook. I noticed they started selling the shelf at lowes. Tried it on my last shower and put the matching threshold under pocket door. It's cool when you can get these products and not have to wait 4 weeks like the old days. Great job.
You make great videos that I have learned a lot from. Thank you 👍🏻
Nice job ! I used to grout epoxy from Mapei + vinegar to clean 4x showers a day for 3 years~ (+ thw whole house in F.A) and my hands eventually got chemical burns - even after wearing gloves heavy duty gloves. After stopping, my hands went back to normal though. Love your vids and just wanted to share my experience 😊
Man truly beautiful work Steve! I've been using mapei ultracolor plus fa, but will have to try this on my next job, looks great to work with. Epoxy grout always scared the crap out of me, but the ardex looks much more user friendly than the stuff I saw years ago.
Doesn't the cut sheet tell you to use Dawn soap in your rinse water?
Didn’t think I’d like that color but it turned out beautiful! Did you use the ardex in place of thin set?
Steve, do you prefer Ardex WA or Laticrete Spectralock Pro Premium?
Meant to ask you this for a while. Im curious because I run my own business and it does get excessive at times. How do you go about getting permits for electrical and plumbing? Is it all under one permit, under 'renovation or remodel'? And do they require drawings for all your jobs? I know PA can be different from NJ.
What about sealing the grout after it’s dried? Is it a necessary step to prevent from mold and moisture?

Epoxy doesn’t need sealing as far as I know
Looks great. From start of grouting to cleaning the floor, what was the total elapsed time.
