we used Hydroment® Ceramic Tile Grout™, Bostik Big Tile & Stone™ for the large format floor tile, Bostik Gold-Plus™ for water- proofing and, in particular, Bostik’s TruColor® Urethane Grout, which we absolutely loved.” Bostik TruColor® RapidCure™ Pre-Mixed, Urethane Grout is a patented, water-based grout offer- ing the ultimate in color accuracy, water resistance, stain and crack protection. This breakthrough for- mulation installs with better color accuracy than traditional grouts, and never needs to be sealed. Other grouts have loose color pig- ments, which can become washed out during the installation and clean up process. Additionally, this product never requires application of a sealer, helping to save up front costs and time. TruColor® RapidCure™ quartz aggregate is color-coated to ensure perfect color consistency for every installation. Additionally, TruColor® RapidCure™ contains Bostik’s Blockade® antimicrobial protection, which inhibits the growth of bacteria, mold, or mildew the hotel guestrooms and public areas simply cannot have. Bostik’s Abell added, “This was, almost to the day, a one-year tile installation project. Gisa’s team and I stayed in close con- tact throughout that entire time- span. Her entire organization is very professional, gracious and cutting-edge: the exact type of people that you want to do busi- ness with! Clearly, the Lafayette East DoubleTree project proved to be a signature tile installation – the result of great teamwork!” CASE STUDY –––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– 82 TileLetter | December 2018
