3 Product Description
StainBlocker for Grout is a sealing and performance enhancing additive
to be used when mixing grout and water. Unlike traditional sealers,
which are applied to grout after it has dried for 2-3 days, StainBlocker

immediately repel dirt and make cleanup easier after the grout is dry.
StainBlocker for Grout will not affect grout color.
