- Grout Pen Ivory Tile Paint Marker: Waterproof Grout Paint, Tile Grout Colorant and Sealer Pen - Ivory, Narrow 5mm Tip (7mL)

This product is a way to freshen up your tired floor. I am currently doing the grout in my kitchen (see picture) and the outcome is wonderful. It looks like a whole new floor. I have used this product (a different color) at my previous home in Florida and it did the same wonderful job to the floors. It is very easy to use and I found that at the home in Florida that it lasted for over a year on tile floors (we moved). I did find out this product type is not good for tile in the shower as after time and constant water exposure it did come off. Will definitely buy this product again!

Works great and looks brand new, takes some time but the end result is worth it.

To begin with, it’s very hard to choose a color grout pen, period. Unless you moved into a place when it was first built and the grout was fresh and you can remember that color, it’s very hard to tell what the original color was supposed to be. So imagine how difficult it is to choose a color over the Internet. Well, ivory worked for me. It’s not a pure, bright white, like bleached-teeth-under-ultraviolet-light-burning-your-eyes color. It’s also not too dark, in fact, not really at all, although the cap of the pen itself suggestd a brownish color. There are a couple of things to keep in mind with the product- which I think is excellent. First the tip of this pen is quite wide, I knew I didn’t want the smaller size because I’m dealing with 1‘ x 1‘ + plus tiles with a good amount of grout in between them. But these pens are even wider tipped than particularly wide grout, which makes the process of using them go a little slower, because you will find you’re constantly wiping up paint that gets on the tiles themselves. This might not be unique to this brand, but just keep in mind, you will have to do some cleanup along the way to make the lines look nice and straight and everything cleaned and even. The other thing to consider is how much tile area do you need to cover? Where I live 3/4 of my home is tiled, and this pen went a decent way into covering that area, but I still have a very long way to go. This sounds like a reasonably priced pen and it probably is. But I’m going to need four or five of them to finish my project. So unless your project involves one small room like a bathroom, don’t expect a single pen to do the entire job, especially since you’ll want a couple of coats. All that said, I’ve purchased more which are on their way, and these aren’t complaints, but rather just things to factor in when making a decision. And naturally, I only started by purchasing one of these in case it was the wrong color, or it was too thick to use at all or anything else. Once you find a color you like, if you’ve got large tiles with a good amount of grout between them this is a good choice to revitalize your grout.

I tried everything to clean my grout on the floor and in the shower. Nothing worked. I saw this product and figured it was so cheap, it was worth a shot. I was worried it would look cheap or tacky or like I had simply painted the grout. Boy was I ever wrong. This product is absolutely amazing!!! My grout actually looks like it is brand new!! It doesn’t look painted or anything, just looks completely new. I did the floors in my kids bathrooms about a week ago, and they splash on the floor like crazy, and the grout has held up and looks great. My bathrooms look so good I’m showing everyone before and after pictures!! I’m so happy with the results. It goes on super fast and is crazy easy. If I had to complain about anything, it’s that the nub of the product can get smashed down if you press or go back and forth too much, but it didn’t smash enough to make the product unusable. Ever so often I would pull out and reverse the nub super easily to kind of ensure it didn’t smash down too much and to keep the substance flowing out. Highly recommend this product!!!

These work good but it is stuff seeing the colors on line.

Ordered 1 Narrow Ivory pen, plus extra tips (didn’t need). Shake pen, press/prime to saturate tip. Start in a hidden area until you get the feel of flow and application. Have a barely damp paper towel handy to clean smudges on tile. Shake pen, plus press tip down again, periodically to keep flowing. Pull lightly in one direction. Rotate pen periodically for more even tip wear. I didn’t have to remove&flip the tip itself. I did one coat, natural looking. Thinking two coats, heavier, would result in “painted on” look. Bathroom is 8x5ft, net 35 SF of 1-foot tiles. One pen did it all. The “Ivory” color was perfect (not whitish as some folks say; maybe formula got fixed??)

Wish I had ordered this years ago. It's easy to use and a great value. I definitely recommend for anyone who needs to touch tile floors.

It does fairly good in the shower floor. Needed a couple of coats. Will watch to see how long it will last with the water.
