Hello,

I just finished laying floor tiles in my bathroom. I am ready to grout it. I used 1/8" tiles spacers and will be using sanded grout which I already purchased.
However, due to my bathroom shape, during floor tiling I ran into some problems and had to put couple of tiles with space less than 1/8". I don't want to buy a bag of unsanded grout just for two lines between tiles.
Do I have to spend $10 for sanded grout just to grout two lines and then throw it away? And in general, why can't I use sanded grout for spaces less then 1/8".

Thanks

Bud,

This is not my first tiling project and every time after I finish, the grout does not look very even. It looks ok, but not pretty. I always follow the instructions; I watched some videos on the internet, but still can't make it look really good and even. Are very any tricks to make grout look really nice? One of my co-workers uses popsicle sticks to help grout to spread more evenly in spaces. But I am not sure I want to do that.

Thanks
