MYK LATICRETE 1776 GROUT ADMIX PLUS

About MYK LATICRETE 1776 GROUT ADMIX PLUS

•  91 OOO 74051 CIVILIZEMART  1776 is a polymer-based admixture (or additive)  not a grout on its own. It is meant to be mixed with cement-based grout powder (sanded or unsanded) instead of plain water. 

• Compatible grouts: you can use it with unsanded grout (for narrow joints, e.g. ~1-3 mm) or sanded grout (for wider joints ~3-12 mm). It improves and upgrades a regular cement grout giving you a grout joint closer to premium performance, but without going full-epoxy. 

Key Features & Benefits (when mixed properly)

When used per instructions, 1776 offers:

• Better durability, flexibility & strength  makes grout joints tougher against shock, stress, and movement, reducing risk of cracking or powdering over time. 

• Improved water resistance and lower water absorption  makes grout more suitable for wet zones like bathrooms, kitchens, wet-areas, even exterior exposure. 

• Enhanced colour stability and resistance to staining/discolouration  grout joints stay more uniform in colour and resist blotchy fade over time. 

• Anti-microbial / anti-mould benefit  the product incorporates technology to inhibit growth of stain-causing bacteria, mold, and mildew on grout joints. 

• Suitable for interior & exterior use, wide tile/stone types  ceramic, vitrified tiles, marble, natural stone, glass mosaic, engineered stone, precast terrazzo tiles, bricks, etc. Non-shrinking & non-cracking joint properties compared with plain cement grout, with better overall mechanical & chemical resistance vs plain cement grout. 

Where & When to Use It

Consider using 1776 Admix when:

• Youre using regular cement-based grout (sanded or unsanded) but want better performance  e.g. for bathrooms, kitchens, balconies, terraces, poolsides, exterior walls/facades (wet or outdoor zones).

• Tile/stone joints are either narrow (13 mm)  use with unsanded grout or wider (312 mm)  use with sanded grout. 

• You want a cost-effective upgrade vs basic cement grout better durability, stain/water resistance, cleaner maintenance without the full cost or complexity of epoxy-based grout.

• You care about long-term appearance and hygiene  e.g. kitchens, washrooms, commercial spaces, areas exposed to moisture or heavy foot traffic.

Points to Keep in Mind / Limitations

• 1776 is not a grout on its own  you must mix it with cement-based grout powder per correct ratio (e.g. for 600-series unsanded grout, ~3.75 L 1776 per 10 kg grout; for 500/ sanded grout: ~1.75 L per 10 kg grout) 

• If you need highest-level stain-proofing / chemical / waterproofing (e.g. for industrial, heavy-duty or very wet environments), an epoxy grout may still perform better (though 1776-modified grout is still much better than plain cement grout).

• Quality depends on proper mixing & application  poor mix ratio or sloppy joint filling may degrade performance (as with any grout system).

Elevate Grout Performance Effortlessly

1776 Grout Admix Plus offers a practical solution for anyone looking to maximize the performance of cement-based grouts. The advanced latex polymer blend increases flexibility and impact strength while defending against stains and cracks. That means tile projects in bathrooms, kitchens, or exteriors last longer and look better with minimal maintenance.


Easy Application for Reliable Results

To use, simply mix 1776 Grout Admix Plus with grout powder in place of water, following the recommended dosage-typically 4 liters per 10 kg of powder. The liquid form makes integration straightforward and uniform. Whether for new installations or renovation, it ensures consistent results regardless of scale.
