TIA If you have followed the usual strategy then you will have grouted ,then squeegeed,then wiped off the excess,then followed the spaces with a suitable tool so whats left is to polish with a dry duster . I think Ive got the correct order of play . Stuart -- "YESTERDAY is history,TOMORROW is a mystery,TODAY is a gift That is why it is called the present " |

Bigeye........As long as you washed as you grouted! it should be just a case of "polishing" them up. Use a clean, soft cloth......oh!.....and plenty of elbow grease! LOL (god i hate that bit!)
