Litokol Starlike EVO is a two-component epoxy grout, here in color Azzurro polvere (310). 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
Azzurro polvere (310) is powder blue with gray undertones. It is the understated version: color, but without the wall demanding attention.
Product & application
Starlike EVO is intended for joints from 1 to 15 mm, on floors and walls, indoors and outdoors. The hardened joint is non-absorbent and stain-resistant. The color comes from sintered quartz spheres that are colored on the surface, meaning no pigment is left on the tile and cleaning is 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 heavily trafficked floors
For natural stone, polished porcelain stoneware, and porous materials, the manufacturer always advises 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 not suitable for this application.
Substrate & compatibility
When used as 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 layers
- 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 containing part A; roll up the bag as you do so to ensure nothing is left behind. Mix with a slow-rotating mixer at approximately 300 rpm until a creamy, lump-free mass is achieved, then scrape the sides and bottom of the bucket. Manual mixing is not recommended.
- Process between +10 °C and +30 °C, ideally between +18 °C and +23 °C
- Approximately 60 minutes working time in the bucket at +23 °C
- Apply with a rubber grout float, diagonally to the direction of the joint
- Clean while 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
Remove haze and residue from the tile after approximately 24 hours using Litonet EVO for floors or Litonet Gel EVO for walls. After this, the product can only be removed mechanically. Do not apply anything 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 long do I have after mixing? Approximately 60 minutes at +23 °C. In warm weather, this time is shorter, so spread the product quickly 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 using Litonet EVO for floors or Litonet Gel EVO for walls.
Can I clean the grouted floor with bleach? No. The manufacturer advises against bleach: if insufficiently diluted or rinsed, the grout may yellow, which is especially noticeable on light colors. Also, do not use aggressive cleaners for the first five days.
