[TowerTalk] Base Grout?

[kr7x at comcast.net]

Jerry:

Look in your yellow pages under concrete suppliers to find a source. 

I normally specify "Masterflow 928" by MasterBuilders or equal. Sika chemical is another manufacturer. What you want is a non-metallic, non-shrink pre package grout. Follow the manufactures directions and you should be ok. Non-metallic doesn't stain as it weathers.
