Hello. Can the top layer of existing grout be removed (scraped off) and this product be placed over the top?

If the old grout is crumbly and loose, I would remove it. I did use this product over areas where the grout had receded and was uneven; it has held up well in those areas. Don't try to smooth it with your fingers, use something like an old credit card, hard plastic.

Yes. The legs are removable, so you could take them off and place it over the existing grates.

Hi Since you are not worried about the finish, you may try Goo Be Gone. It can be purchased almost anywhere. It may not even do any damage to the surface either.

I'd use the primer for it before doing so, but I see no reason it can't be after that, as thats what I did. But you'd also want to "level" the joints in the existing tile before you do, so its not as simple as peel and stick if you want it right.

No. It is not essential to remove all the old caulk. This stuff don't stick very good anyway.

I would not suggest painting over it because, even with good paint, it will scratch off. However, you could sand it down first and then paint it and that should work.

I would not add it to the grout! But there are other grouts that have the sealer already added to it! I do not know of any products other than this sealer! It is easy to apply and it works great!

Hi Jamie,I didnt end up using this tile because it was over budget unfortunately. I havent looked at the sample for a while but I felt like the grout space wasnt to large or to small for the size of it...tho it wasnt super close together. The sample was really nice and I wish that we had enough to use it!

No the grate does not have to be on top. I use mine all the time without it.

Yes, that is what I have. It was very slippery even with rubber mats as they would not stay in place. We ordered enough of the product to cover every tile, and I a no longer afraid to use this shower. Product a little expensive but cheaper than ripping out tiles and replacing. Hope this helps you make a decision.

If you plan to regrout the bath tiles you may want to purchase the grout remover attachment, and really not much more.The purpose of this tool is specific and the most used attachments are included (the half circle and the flat cutoff attachments).Hope this helps

I dont know if its possible to remove it. but we didnt try. I dont think it could be covered nothing came with it. But u dont need to remove it. Its perfect height. It should line up with ur current piping for the spout & shower. this shower is perfect. It gives the temp of the water and the rain shower head is a perfect size. U dont have to move ur head around. Hope this helps. And the price right now is 100 less than what I paid 6 months ago. Ours did go thru a breakin period where the temp gage made noise and would shut off. But that stopped and hasnt done it again.

Hi there the best option to use this type of mother of pearl is with white grout. It doesnt come with any installation information.Thanks

There is a solid top that slides on and a grate with bars above that. You could leave the solid plate out. I'm going to try that out myself.

I removed the old caulk and applied a thin bead of transparent silicon caulk and smoothed it out to be mostly flush. I then applied this strip on top of that and then used the remaining transparent silicon caulk to seal the grout lines along the top. Based on reading the reviews I think sealing the strip after you apply it with transparent silicone caulk is a very necessary step. Just spend some time wiping up the excess and you won't notice the transparent caulk, but you will have piece of mind that the strip will be water tight.

It would be hard to apply if the grout is not smooth. It would if the grout that's cracked is not too deep.

Not easily. It's part of the structure of the top. With a hacksaw and file or sandpaper I suppose you could remove it, but that would be permanent alteration.
