Grout Colorant Coverage Chart

Welcome to our GDC grout stain colorant coverage chart, here you will be able to approximately determine the amount of colorant that you will need, for your project. Surprisingly enough we have tested our coverage with our competitors per the same 8 ounce bottle and found that ours covers more area then the other companies, this means more savings for the customer in the long run.

Actual coverage varies with type of application method and grout porosity.

To figure out how many bottles you will need please use chart above or the example below or email us the 3 measurements and we will figured it out for you.

bulletMeasure the square foot of your floor or walls
bulletMeasure the size of one tile
bulletMeasure the width of your grout joint

Example

Total Square footage--------------425

Size of Tile -----------------------12" x12"

Width of Grout Line --------------1/4"

Base Formula------------  One eight ounce bottle of Grout Colorant will cover about 200-250 square feet of 12"x12" tile with 1/4 inch grout joints. So if the Example above has 425 square feet with 12x12 tile and 1/4 grout joints, you will need 2 eight ounce bottles of Grout Colorant for your project.
