Epoxy Grout Filler In Dehradun

Epoxy grout filler is a high-performance grout used primarily in tile installations where superior durability, chemical resistance, and stain resistance are required. It is a two- or three-part system typically made of epoxy resins and a hardener, and sometimes includes colorants or sand fillers. Unlike cement-based grout, epoxy grout is non-porous, making it an excellent choice for areas exposed to moisture, grease, and harsh cleaning agents.

📝 Tips for Application:

Prep surface well before applying epoxy grout.

Use epoxy grout float to apply — metal tools can scratch tiles.

Clean haze promptly — once cured, it's difficult to remove.

Mix in small batches to avoid waste due to fast curing.

Wear gloves and mask — fumes and resins can be irritating.
