Step 1. You want to make sure you buy a sanded grout, because this is best for flooring.

Step 2. Mix your grout in a bucket adding the recommended amount of water. You know your grout has the perfect amount of water if it’s the consistency of peanut butter.

Tip: Don’t mix all the grout at once. Only make enough for about 15 minutes of work, to prevent it from getting too stiff before you’re finished.

Step 3. Grab two five-gallon buckets: one for your grout and the other filled with clean water. Also grab two grouting sponges.

Step 4. Scoop up some grout with your float. Hold your float at a about a 45 degree angle and spread it over the tile and push it in between the tiles to fill the grout line. Scrape off the excess. Don’t worry if you get grout on the tile, because you will wash this off later.

Step 5.Using your water bucket wet your sponge only enough for it to be barely damp. You don’t want your sponge to be too wet.
