Estimated 20% coverage in square feet. If the nozzle is brown and you want to paint in white, is likely to have to apply two layers, so keep this in mind when you buy the dye.

After the acid wash the floor, you have to wait 24 hours before applying the dye. There can be absolutely no moisture in the grout lines as the painting also contains a sealant that helps bond color. Also, you may want to tape off all the baseboards to prevent paint on them. Important Note: 5 to 7 days after painting the grout lines to clean your floor. Do not use any harsh detergents, 4 oz. of vinegar per gallon of water works well.

Shake your paint vigorously for 30 seconds to make sure that mixing the sealant and paint well. Pour some of the contents of the butter bowl lid and dip your toothbrush in the paint slightly and begin to paint the lines the grout from the wall of working your way back. You have to paint in both vertical and horizontal lines together, so do not walk backwards on the fresh paint. Be sure to apply paint evenly, using too much or too little. You will get a good feel for it after painted a few lines. Do not worry about being perfect, you will get some paint on the tile, this is normal. After having painted 50 to 75 square feet will to stop and clean the tile that has accumulated on the tile before it dries.

Make sure the paint has been at least 30 minutes, so the paint will not be removed of the grout lines when cleaning the surface with a damp towel. Wet a towel and drain some excess water, so it does not leak. Clean the edge of the tile ceramics in line outside the nozzle as shown in the picture. If you notice that the paint is not going very easy, you can place a rag under the fabric wet and place the palm on top of the sponge, rub in a circular motion until the paint off the excess. Repeat this process in the next 50 to 75 feet square tiles until the job is completed.
