Premixed grout is FOR wet areas.


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.


Is this not premixed grout? If not, what do you call it? Grout repair?

I would call that caulk and it too will fail when used around the drain of a
shower. The mud bed in a shower is constantly wet if the shower is used at
all. You need to use a cement based product if you want it to hold up. Epoxy
grout could be used ut that's overkill.
