PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN. Grout Sealer is designed for the pro-
tection of all sanded, non-sanded and mortar joints. Grout Sealer pene-
trates into the surface and forms an invisible barrier that is resistant to
moisture and stains, while allowing vapor to escape. Grout Sealer is not a
surface coating and will not alter the natural look. Grout Sealer can be used
on interior and exterior applications. Grout Sealer is U.V. transparent and
will not yellow under any circumstances.
NOTE: For any question concerning grout-refer to the manufacturers specifi-
cations.

Due to the differences of each material, several inconspicuous test patches
should be completed to assure maximum performance. User must deter-
mine suitability of the product for their intended use.
Grout Color Modification
For changing the color of sanded, epoxy and non-sanded grout joints use
the Grout Pen.
Protect Neighboring Surfaces
Always protect neighboring surfaces including wood, carpet, metal, land-
scaping and other non masonry surfaces.
