TEC® Skill Set™ Introduces DIY-Friendly DesignColor™ Grout

AURORA, Ill. - April 15, 2015 - PRLog -- A new product by TEC^® Skill Set™ has revolutionized grout selection. As if they are shopping for paint, consumers can visit the TEC^® Skill Set™ Grout Design Center, located in the Flooring aisle at Lowe’s, to discover the perfect grout color to complement their home design. The Grout Design Center invites customers to peruse a vibrant display of 100+ grout colors—making it easier to find a grout color in stock that matches tile, furniture and paint selections in their homes.

Do-it-yourselfers can easily create the perfect TEC® Skill Set™ grout color for their home with interchangeable and unique color mixes, which are referenced on the grout color cards in the Grout Design Center. This innovative approach empowers do-it-yourselfers to bring an artistic, design-oriented approach to their tile projects.

TEC® Skill Set™ DesignColor™ Grout ensures homeowners can achieve their design vision—all the way down to the grout lines. Modern colors like Raven, Chromium and Ocean Deep complement metallic tiles – for chic, edgy designs, while Butter Cream, Praline and Gingerbread accentuate more traditional selections.

“We recognize that it’s easy to become frustrated when trying to find a grout that matches tile selections. That’s why we created a grout innovation that makes grout selection fun, easy and accommodating to a design-savvy homeowner,” said RoseMary Clyburn, President of H.B. Fuller Construction Products, who manufactures TEC® Skill Set™ Grout.

DesignColor™ Grout requires very little preparation and measuring, removing the guesswork from grouting. Users simply pair each 12.5 lb. plastic bag of DesignColor™ Grout universal grout base with two individually packaged color mix cups to create the perfect grout color. Then, the grout components can be mixed with 48 oz. containers of Grout Boost® grout additive – no measuring required— to create a stain proof grout*.

The grout can be used on both floor and wall, sanded and unsanded applications, and in wet areas like showers. In as little as 24 hours, DesignColor™ Grout hardens and the finishing touches to a tile design project are complete.
