The condition of the grout in my master bathroom around the tub finally got to me! After much trial and error, I managed to remove the old, dirty, cracked grout around the tub surround. This involved the use of a flat knife, a straight blade, a reciprociating saw (
), and just some general elbow grease!
This morning I started to regrout - but my question is this:
How thick do you have to make the grout? I have no interest in the sloppy way in which it was previously done (on the tile above it and on the bathtub itself). I squeezed the grout as far back as it would go into the interior of the wall, but externally, it looks like only a nice, clean, thin line. Is that enough?
Also, once I let this dry and set, I then have to seal, is that correct?
Do you have any specific recommendations for the sealer?
Thanks so much!
