You will need the BrickFix Applicator Gun, a mixing paddle (often included), and a drill for preparing the holes. You may also need a pointing trowel for finishing.

How do I clean the BrickFix Applicator Gun after use?

Clean the BrickFix Applicator Gun immediately after use to prevent the grout from hardening inside. Use water to clean the gun while the grout is still wet. Follow the gun's specific cleaning instructions.

Troubleshooting

Grout is not flowing smoothly from the applicator gun.

Ensure the grout mixture is consistent and not too thick. Check for any blockages in the applicator gun nozzle. Try cleaning the gun if necessary.

Grout appears to be shrinking after application.

This is unlikely due to the non-shrink formulation. Ensure proper mixing and application techniques were followed. Check the product's expiration date.

Grout is not setting properly.

Ensure the correct ratio of liquid and powder components was used. Verify that the product is within its shelf life and store the product according to instructions.
