Litokol Starlike EVO is a two-component epoxy grout, here in Bianco titanio (105) color. The colored paste and the hardener are together in one bucket. You can use it to grout ceramics, porcelain stoneware, and mosaics, and the same product can also be used as tile adhesive.
Color & Atmosphere
Bianco titanio (105) is on the border of white and grey. It gives light tiling a soft delineation without creating a true grey line.
Product & Application
Starlike EVO is intended for joints from 1 to 15 mm, on floors and walls, indoors and outdoors. The cured joint is non-absorbent and stain-resistant. The color comes from sintered quartz beads that are colored on the surface, ensuring no pigment remains on the tile and making cleaning easier.
- Ceramic tiles, porcelain stoneware, and single or double-fired tiles
- Ceramic and glass mosaics
- Large-format tiles and thin laminated stoneware slabs
- Marble, granite, natural stone, and reconstituted stone
- Terracotta and clinker
- Wet rooms, showers, swimming pools, fountains, spas, and hammams
- Terraces, balconies, facades, and floors with heavy traffic
For natural stone, polished porcelain stoneware, and porous materials, the manufacturer recommends always making a test joint first. This determines whether the material absorbs the resin or is difficult to clean. Tuscan terracotta and other porous items such as concrete kerbstones are outside the scope of application.
Substrate & Compatibility
As a grout, apply Starlike EVO to joints that are clean, dust-free, and open to the full tile thickness. First, check that the tile adhesive is completely dry and cured. If using it as an adhesive, the substrate must be clean, load-bearing, crack-free, and free from rising damp.
- Screeds and leveling compounds
- Concrete and plasterwork
- Underfloor heating
- Waterproofing layers, including Coverflex and Aquamaster EVO
- Metal substrates, for example in prefabricated bathrooms
- Wooden kitchen countertops with tiles or mosaics
Butt joints without space are not allowed, and plastic tile spacers must be removed before grouting. For the elastic sealing of expansion, corner, and connection joints, do not use epoxy grout but a sealant from the Pixel 3D line.
Processing
Cut open the bag of hardener and empty it completely into the bucket with part A; roll up the bag to ensure nothing is left behind. Mix with a slow-rotating mixer at approximately 300 rpm until a creamy, lump-free mass, and scrape the sides and bottom of the bucket. Mixing by hand is not recommended.
- Process between +10 °C and +30 °C, optimally between +18 °C and +23 °C
- Approximately 60 minutes working time in the bucket at +23 °C
- Apply with a rubber float, diagonally to the joint direction
- Clean as long as the product is fresh: first with white felt, then with a damp sponge
- Walkable after 24 hours, fully loadable after 5 days, swimming pools after 7 days
Haze and residues can be removed from the tile after approximately 24 hours with Litonet EVO for floors or Litonet Gel EVO for walls. After that, the product can only be removed mechanically. Do not apply if the temperature drops below +10 °C within 24 hours, protect the work from direct sunlight and strong drafts for the first 12 hours, and do not cover the fresh joint — wait 48 to 72 hours before placing breathable material over it.
Key Features

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I also use Starlike EVO as tile adhesive? Yes. Spread it with the smooth side of the trowel to about 1 mm and then comb it up with the notched side. Grouting can be done after approximately 24 hours.
How much time do I have after mixing? Approximately 60 minutes at +23 °C. In warm weather, this goes faster, so quickly spread the product over the floor instead of leaving it in the bucket.
What if I remove residues too late? After hardening, epoxy can only be removed mechanically. Therefore, remove haze within approximately 24 hours with Litonet EVO for floors or Litonet Gel EVO for walls.
Can I clean the grouted floor with bleach? No. The manufacturer advises against bleach: with insufficient dilution or rinsing, the grout can yellow, which is especially noticeable on light colors. Also, do not use aggressive cleaners for the first five days.
