I don't have many photos from this because this step annoyed me and there wasn't much to see anyway.
Day 31 (Monday AKA grouting FAIL day)
1. Work on removing grout haze
2. Put the light switch covers back on
3. Apply grout caulk where the counter and backsplash meet and a few other spots
4. Use finger to go along caulk line to smooth it out (my job)
4. Run out of grout caulk
Day 32 (Tuesday AKA grouting FAIL discovery day)
1. Go to HD to buy more grout caulk and some wood to make the arch
2. Discover grout caulk fail when removing painters tape (tape had been put down before we tiled so it was far under the tiles and took most of the caulk off with it once removed instead of leaving a nice smooth line)
3. Scrape off all grout caulk along the counter
4. Decide to do a practice area
5. Place tape on the counter to the left of the stove
6. Apply grout caulk, use finger to smooth
7. Caulk other areas like under the window
8. Remove tape on counter after 20 minutes, admire the nice straight line
Day 33 (Wednesday - Grouting FAIL fixing day)
1. Tape the rest of the counters
2. Apply grout caulk
3. Smooth with finger
4. Remove tape and admire
| I'm so glad to be done with the stupid caulking |
