Premixed grout is junk. It might be ok for some small repairs but NEVER

use
it in wet areas and expect it to hold up.


Premixed grout is FOR wet areas. Use your head man. We're not talking
about it "holding up". It failed immediately. There was something wrong,
and it wasn't that he used premixed grout.



Look, I don't know your experience, but I've been a tile setter for 25
years. Premixed grout is nothing more than a colored organic mastic. Any
ceramic mastic will re-emulsify when exposed to constant moisture. If you
don't want to beleive me, will you trust Custom Building Products.

Pre-Mixed Tile Grout is a non-sanded white grout used to
repair grout joints up to 1/8" (3 mm).
USES
For repairing narrow grout joints up to 1/8" (3 mm).
LIMITATIONS
For dry areas only. For wet areas, use White Dry Tile Grout or
Polyblend® Non-Sanded Grout.
SURFACE PREPARATION
Remove a minimum of 1/16" (1.6 mm) of existing grout.
