Litokol Starlike Pro is a sixth-generation decorative epoxy grout, here in Nebbia (06) colour. It is a two-component product: the coloured gel and the polymeric hardener are together in one 2.5 kg bucket. You can use it to grout tiles, mosaic and natural stone, and the same product can also be used as tile adhesive.
Colour & atmosphere
Nebbia (06) is a misty grey with a warm undertone. With beige and greige tiling, the grout lines disappear into the surface, creating a sense of calm in a small bathroom.
Product & application
Starlike Pro is intended for joints from 1 to 20 mm, on floors and walls, indoors and outdoors. The hardened joint is waterproof, stain-resistant and UV-resistant. The colour comes from coloured quartz and glass microspheres instead of chemical pigments, which ensures colour stability.
- Ceramic and glass mosaics, ceramic tiles and porcelain stoneware
- Large-format tiles and laminated stoneware slabs
- Marble, granite, natural stone and reconstituted stone
- Terracotta and clinker
- Wet rooms, bathrooms and showers, swimming pools and fountains, spas and hammams
- Terraces, balconies, facades and industrial floors
For natural stone, polished porcelain stoneware, mosaic and porous surfaces, the manufacturer always prescribes making a test joint first. This determines whether the material discolours or is difficult to clean.
Substrate & compatibility
When used as a grout, Starlike Pro should be applied to joints that are dry and dust-free and open for at least two-thirds of the tile thickness. If used as an adhesive, the substrate must be load-bearing and free of loose parts, grease, oil, paint, wax and rising damp, according to UNI 11493-1.
- Screeds, levelling layers and plasterwork
- Gypsum and anhydrite
- Concrete, cellular concrete and fibre cement boards
- Existing tiles, metal and wood
- Underfloor heating, waterproofing systems and decoupling membranes
For the elastic sealing of expansion, control and connection joints, do not use epoxy grout but a sealant from the Pixel 3D line.
Processing
Cut open the hardener bag and empty it completely into the bucket with part A. Mix with a slow-speed mixer (approx. 300 rpm) until a creamy, lump-free mass is obtained, scraping the sides and bottom of the bucket. Manual mixing is not recommended, as an uneven mixture affects the final strength.
- Process between +10 °C and +30 °C
- More than 90 minutes working time in the bucket
- Apply with the Starlike rubber float, diagonally to the joint direction
- Clean while the product is fresh, with white felt and then a damp sponge
- Light foot traffic after 24 hours, fully usable after 5 days, swimming pools after 7 days
Remove residues from the tile surface within 24 hours and no later than 48 hours, using Starlike Care for floors or Starlike Wall Care for walls. After that, the product can only be removed mechanically. Do not apply anything if the temperature drops below +10 °C within 24 hours, and protect the work from direct sunlight and strong draughts for the first 12 hours.

Frequently asked questions
How much Starlike Pro do I need? Consumption depends on tile size, tile thickness and joint width. Use the calculation tool on the product page or Litokol's consumption calculator. As an adhesive, calculate 1.1 kg/m² with a 2 mm notch, increasing to 3.5 kg/m² with 10 mm.
Can I use this grout over underfloor heating? Yes. Underfloor heating is listed in the technical data sheet as an allowed substrate, and the cured joint is resistant from -20 °C to +100 °C. Do observe the normal waiting times: 24 hours for light foot traffic and 5 days for full use.
Why do I need to do a test first for natural stone? Natural stone, mosaics and polished stoneware vary greatly depending on their origin and production. Litokol therefore prescribes a test joint to see in advance whether the surface discolours or is difficult to clean.
What if it's colder than 10 degrees? Do not process the product if the temperature drops below +10 °C within 24 hours. If you are working around this limit, Litokol advises adding EpoxyGel booster: one 50-gram sachet per 2.5 kg, two sachets per 5 kg.
