Mapei's Flexcolor CQ is one of the grouts we recommend for ceramic tile bathroom floors because it's stain resistant, doesn't need to be sealed and is pre-mixed. There are a lot of great features to the grout and the ease of use makes it a good option for homeowners or contractors. The nice part about it being pre-mixed is there's not guessing the consistency.
The first step to using Flexcolor CQ is to get all the supplies in the room. You'll need a rubber grout float, margin trowel, knee pads or towel, 5 gallon bucket of water and sponge.
Work in 3x3 foot sections as you don't want the Flexcolor CQ to sit on the tile for more than 5-10 minutes. Dampen the top of the tile with a sponge. Apply the Flexcolor CQ to the grout joints using the rubber grout float at a 45 degree angle to the tile. Remove excess grout from the tile by holding the grout float at a 90 degree angle and moving it diagonally across the tiles. Use a damp sponge to remove excess grout. Move the sponge diagonally to the tile to remove the grout.
One you're done apply the Flexcolor CQ to one section move onto the next one. You'll see all the steps in the video and feel comfortable using this grout even if you've never grouted before.
Also, we have some tips on how to tackle the joint between the tile and tub. Mapei makes color matching sealants for its sanded grouts. We used Keracaulk-S. You'll see all the tips in the video
