Why Should we give Importance to Grout - Caponi

1. Why Should we give Importance to Grout? 1. Grout renders a very neat and well-maintained look to your flooring. It is a mixture of sand and cement which is filled in the void between two tiles to join them. This grout tends to come off after some time if not sealed properly. A good grout sealer should not be bulky else it will ruin the surface completely. 2. Many times, people use a low quality grout for sealing their tiles. A low quality grout is a mixture with more water or a poor quality of cement. This hardens in small chunks and wears off. 3. When people resort to re-grouting, they often find a color mismatch in their tiles which makes it obvious to the onlooker that the surface has been restored. Re- grouting is also not a permanent solution as it will eventually wear off again. To avoid all these issues with grouting, we have made Caponi which is an epoxy grout sealer. 4. When you don’t seal your grout with a good sealer, it soon cracks or wears off, giving a dirty and un-maintained appearance to your flooring. 5. The area from where the grout has cracked stores water making it stagnant. Stagnant water is an excellent breeding ground for mold, fungus and mildew. 6. Grout is porous by nature as it is made from sand and cement. If you do not seal the grout, it absorbs dirty water, leading to mold and mildew formation, which further lead to eye problems, runny nose and other respiratory problems. 7. An unsealed grout becomes discolored and stained giving a blackish appearance to your tiles, thereby ruining the look of your costly tile. 8. If the grout has worn off completely, the tiles can come off loose without the presence of a good joint between them. This can be very dangerous to someone walking barefoot on the flooring. 9. It is best to clean grout thoroughly first with Imperia Deep Clean, which is a deep soaking cleaner that penetrates the surface of stone knocking of stains, mold and mildew at the root level.

2. 10. Lastly, grout should be sealed with a colored grout sealer - Caponi, which is available in 40 different colors. These colors are mostly earthy and neutral tones found in tiles. Caponi has a durable titanium base which does its work in just a single coat. It is a pigmented grout sealing system that is built on a rock-solid 2-part solvent titanium resin/epoxy foundation. It is made in such a way that it can cover all grout in just one coat. It is suitable for sealing both sanded and unsanded grout.
