INSTRUCTIONS FOR STAINLESS STEEL GROUT
HEADS
Stainless Steel Grout Head must be
formed to fit in the appropriate grout line that you are cleaning. While most
tile will not be affected, some tiles will scratch if you are using an oversized
head.
Grasp the head in one hand, with
the other hand you will want to use a pair of needle nose pliers, grab the
steel at the base where the steel is attached to the head. Use a circular
twisting motion to pull the steel away from the plastic base. Do not pull
straight up, it will not release.
We can also suggest small wire
clippers if you have a problem removing them. for larger grout lines, you
should leave 2 plugs at 12:00 and 2 plugs at 6:00. for small lines i.e.
bathroom tiles, use one plug at the top and one at the bottom.
