    Customer Questions
    Does this grout need to be sealed? We have a brand new porcelain tiled kitchen and bath floor.
    If you used regular Permacolor Grout, yes, you do need to seal. If you used Permacolor Select, no seal is needed.
    Is this sanded or not sanded?
    Technically yes. It's got kevlar instead of sand, so it's got a texture.  
    How long after you lay the grout? Can you mop it and seal it?
    This is from the Laticrete PermaColor Grout Data Sheet download at the bottom of our product page: Cleaning: For first cleaning wait approximately 20 – 30 minutes at 70°F (21°C). Wider joints or cooler temperatures may extend wait time. Begin initial cleaning by lightly wiping down entire area to be cleaned with a damp sponge. Wash with a damp sponge (not wet). Work diagonally to the joints. Allow to dry 3 hours at 70°F (21°C). For second cleaning use a damp sponge or dry cloth to remove remaining grout haze. Note: Use caution when grouting soft glazed tile or polished stone. If grout is to be sealed, LATICRETE generally recommends waiting a minimum of a 48 hours at 70°F (21°C) prior to sealing PERMACOLOR Grout?, or any other cement-based grout; however, we suggest deferring to the written recommendations of the sealer manufacturer to make the final determination, as certain sealers may require the cement grout to cure for an extended period of time.
