After you install your tile, allow it to cure overnight or for the amount of time recommended by the adhesive manufacturer. Grout comes in a wide variety of colors, and it can be tinted to match your decor. Mix the grout to a consistency similar to peanut butter. Scoop some grout onto the tiles, and use a rubber grout float to work it into the joints (figure A). Spread the grout at an angle to force it as far as possible into the joints. After you finish working the grout into the joints, wipe off the residue with a damp sponge (figure B). For best results, rinse the sponge frequently. Allow the grout to cure to a light haze, and buff the tiles with a soft cloth. After the grout has cured, apply a sealant to the grout lines, and caulk along the tub line to prevent moisture from building up underneath the tiles.
