Mixing grout - Kg and Litres

[rokerman1973]

Hello all.
I''m going to do a little bit of grouting of the floor tiles in my porch tomorrow.
The instructions on the pack of grout powder says mix 5kg with 1.25Kg of water.
I think this is equivalent to 1.25 litres of water. Is this correct?
Many thanks in advance for any help.

First of all how big is your porch if its that big that it takes 5kg its a fair size and if you are doing it on your own mix enough to do a quarter of the job that way you will keep all the tiles clean  and have plenty of time during the drying time to was all the grout off your tiles. You only get a short time to do this job so take your time and you will be pleased with what you have  accomplished

Yes. Have fun & I'd divide by 5 just for easy maths but rugby's right!
