Usage

This rubber foam float excels in a variety of tile installation scenarios. Whether you are laying ceramic, porcelain, or natural stone tiles, the closed‑cell foam pad allows you to apply grout without the risk of the material sticking to the tool, which can cause uneven lines and wasted product.
