Grout-Aide is a water-based permanent paint marker that is odorless and non-toxic. The quick-drying paint covers stubborn stains leaving a uniform finished grout line. If some of the paint gets on the tiles just wipe off within 5 minutes to remove. No harsh chemicals and no fumes so it is safe for use in an environment with pets and children.

Application tips…

  • Shake the marker for 2 minutes prior to use then gently press the tip onto paper until the paint flows. Try a few lines on the paper to become familiar with the flow of the marker before working on your tile grout. Note: Paint will absorb through the paper so protect the surface underneath.
  • Keep an eye on the marker’s tip during application. If it becomes frayed, remove the tip and turn it around to maintain consistent coverage. The marker is designed for this.
  • Do not use in areas with high moisture, such as shower stalls.
  • For thinner coverage, periodically dip marker in water during application.
  • Know how many lineal feet of grout you’ll be covering before purchasing Grout Aide. Each marker covers approximately 175 lineal feet. Coverage may vary depending on the thickness of the grout line.
  • As with any product, read full product label directions prior to use.
