Great product - my new review

Great product. To help others on putting this on to their grout please follow these instructions below. Please note, the glitter will be everywhere. You should tarp things off and make sure you don't care if glitter gets on you or clothes.1) Don't buy a lot of bags. For a typical 6 foot tub shower with 1/16 or 1/8 grout lines, I used half the bag of glitter if that.2) Don't mix the glitter in the grout as your are mixing the grout for the first time. That will just waste the glitter. Just mix the grout as normal first.3) You have to work kind of quick or do grout in sections. My advice is to do small sections so you can test what you like.4) Apply the grout as normal but make sure you have a small bucket of water and sponge ready. Once you apply the grout with the float in the section, quickly wipe the wet sponge over the grout once so it has that wet mud look5) Sprinkle the glitter on the wet sponge itself and then push the glitter into the soft grout before it dries. Sprinkle as much as you want the glitter to show on the wet sponge6) Make sure you push the glitter on the sponge into the wet grout surface. You can dip the sponge into the bucket of water so it is damp. The bucket of water will have glitter in it, that is fine.7) If you sprinkle about a tablespoon at a time, you shouldn't run out of this whole bag8) The more you sprinkle on the sponge and press into the grout, the more sparkle. If you want less sparkle don't sprinkle so much. Remember that as long as you keep wetting the sponge, the glitter will be in the water and so you may not have to sprinkle so much each time.9) Once you have the desired look, wipe any excess grout off and let dry as many hours/days as the grout says.10) Then apply your desired grout sealant. The glitter should not come off as long as you apply the grout sealant. If you are paranoid you can always use clear epoxy but that stuff is expensive and you need to know how to use it.For me, I put on a lot because I wanted a lot of sparkle. Mine turned out great and I have more glitter to use elsewhere.

Pros
  • I added it to the grout for the top of my make up vanity
Cons
  • Just get cheaper glitter and apply it with grout sealer instead of wasting it inside the grout itself
