How do I paint the grout on my terracotta tile floor?
We have now been in the new house for 6 months and are loving it. BUT the grout on the floor is bugging me and we can't afford to redo the floors right now. I'm thinking that refreshing the grout might work but am not sure of what colour to use. Any ideas?

Heather....You can repaint the grout. I purchased a small bottle of the color I wanted and painted the old with a toothbrush, wiping with a damp rag. I really like mine and it has worked well for several years. I purchased this at Lowe's. Good luck

Ployblend Grout Renew - An Affordable, Easy Way to Update Grout Color
I recommend Maepi Grout Refresh. I have used in two bathrooms and it has held up for years. You can buy it on Amazon, but Floor and Decor sells it for 1/2 Amazons price. It also has a sealer in it to prevent mold and dirt from forming. I love this stuff. You can use an artist brush or childs tooth brush All instructions are on the bottle. Oh and a little goes a long way.
