1. The caulk must be 24 hours old to grout.
2. You must wear gloves and cover the counter top with paper. Tape the gloves at your wrist to help keep them on your hands.
3. Place about 1" of the grout in the provided bowl. Do not make a cloud and do not breath the dust!
4. Add small amounts of water to the grout. Mix well in between adding the water, using gloved hands.
5. Add water and mix gradually until the mixture is similar in consistency to mayonnaise.
6. Working quickly, press half dollar sized dollops onto the glass. Do not rub the glass, but instead press it down into the grooves.
7. Work all the way out to the edges. Check that the sides look nice.
8. Scoop any remaining grout into a heap on the paper. Wipe out the bowl with paper towel and then rinse and finish cleaning it out.
9. Wipe the grout off of the glass using wads of paper towel. Prep this ahead of time. You will need 8 to 10 wads depending on the size of your piece. Discard the paper towel as it fills with extra grout. Keep wiping until the glass is clean. Allow the piece to rest and finish drying.
11. Everything must be done in one class hour including clean up.
