    was on YouTube 20mins ago (mrs is watching some rubbish on the telly)
    A suggested video came up.
    Was some American diy’er, had fitted his lvt like conventional cermamics and then grouted then in.
    Following this video was another American video, more on the retail side, but also stated grouting the tiles.

    Is this just an American thing ?
    Seems a bit weird to me

    You can still get Mapei grout for LVT

    Thought you’d be the man in the know spacey. Ever used it? Ever had anyone even ask for it?

    Moduleo make a grout now. Works well too. Used some on a repair job where the planks had gapped.

    Amtico probably stopped doing it because it cracked even over concrete and it’s a right pitta to clean off the tiles. Probably because the vinyl expands and contracts
