Frequently Asked Questions

Mapei Ultracolor Plus 174 Alu is a cementitious grout designed for tiles. It provides colored joint filling for ceramic, porcelain, and natural stone, and is specialized for use on aluminium surfaces. It comes in four 5 kg packs (4 x 5 kg) with the Tornado color (color code 174).

It is suitable for joints from 1 to 20 mm on walls and floors.

It is compatible with ceramic, porcelain, and all types of natural stones, and is specifically formulated for use on aluminium substrates.

Tornado is the color associated with the shade coded as 174. The 174 Alu variant is a Mapei Ultracolor Plus color designed for aluminium surface installations.

It is packaged as 4 packs of 5 kg each (4 x 5 kg), totaling 20 kg. This packaging makes measuring and dosing easier for mid-size tiling projects.

Add the powder to clean water and mix until you obtain a smooth, lump-free, creamy consistency. Avoid dry lumps and follow the bag’s specific instructions for the exact mix ratio.

Grout should be applied after the adhesive setting exceeds the tile manufacturer's guidance. Typically, allow the tile adhesive to cure as directed (often around 24 hours), then grout. After grouting, avoid heavy water exposure for at least 24–48 hours; refer to site-specific guidance for exact times.

Sealing is optional with Ultracolor Plus. The grout is formulated to be stain resistant, but in high-stain environments (like kitchens or showers), a compatible cement grout sealer can be used following Mapei recommendations.

Wear appropriate PPE such as gloves and eye protection. Work in a well-ventilated area, avoid inhaling dust, and wash exposed skin with water after handling. Keep out of reach of children and dispose of waste according to local regulations.

Ultracolor Plus 174 Alu is optimized for aluminium substrates, offering formulation advantages for adhesion and performance on metal-backed installations. For the non-Alu variant, color 174 is available in the standard Ultracolor Plus line. Compare here: https://fepy.com/product/mapei-ultracolor-plus-174

Ultracolor Plus FA is another Mapei grout variant with its own performance characteristics. Ultracolor Plus 174 Alu is specifically tailored for aluminium substrates, while FA variants may differ in formulation and application. Compare here: https://fepy.com/product/mapei-ultracolor-plus-fa

Four 5 kg packs provide easier dosage control for smaller to mid-size projects, reduce waste, and simplify handling and mixing compared with a single large bag.
