Litokol Starlike Finishes Spotlight is a color effect that you mix into Starlike EVO as a third component. The 75-gram sachet is pre-dosed for a 2.5 kg bucket, so you don't have to weigh it. It is therefore not a standalone grout but an additive to a bucket that you buy separately.
Color & atmosphere
Spotlight adds a silver glitter. On a dark grout, it reads like stardust; on a light one, it remains subtle.
Product & application
You can mix this effect with any color from the Starlike EVO range. The intensity of the original color does not change.
- Ceramic tiles, porcelain stoneware, and mosaic
- Clinker
- Wall and floor, indoors only
- Bathrooms, kitchens, shops, and showrooms
- Furniture elements and columns
Pay attention to the limits. Do not use a bucket with this effect outdoors — on terraces, balconies, facades, and in swimming pools — because the additives are poorly resistant to UV radiation. Also, do not use it on surfaces that come into contact with aggressive chemicals, such as industrial floors.
Substrate & compatibility
The requirements for the substrate are those of Starlike EVO itself: the joints must be clean, dust-free, and open to the full tile thickness, and the tile adhesive must be completely dry and cured.
- With any color from the Starlike EVO range
- Also mixable with FillGood EVO
- Pre-dosed to the bucket size: this sachet belongs to 2.5 kg
- Not for outdoor applications
- Not on surfaces with aggressive chemical exposure
The effect is best accentuated on a surface where natural light or artificial light falls. In a dark corner, you will see little of it.
Processing
First, mix the hardener (part B) with the colored paste (part A) of Starlike EVO, using a slow-rotating mixer, until a lump-free mass is obtained. Then carefully pour in this sachet and mix it gently until it is evenly distributed.
- Pour carefully: the powder is light and easily scatters
- Mix at low speed, otherwise the product will splash
- Apply with a rubber float, diagonally to the joint direction
- Most favorably between +18 °C and +23 °C
- Clean while the product is fresh
Do not add water or solvent to make it easier to spread. Below +10 °C, the mixture becomes thick and difficult to process, and curing takes much longer; do not start if the temperature drops below +10 °C within 24 hours. In warm weather, quickly spread the product over the surface, as the reaction heat in the bucket shortens the processing time.

Frequently asked questions
Do I also need a bucket of Starlike EVO for this? Yes. This is an additive, not a grout in itself. The sachet is pre-dosed for a 2.5 kg bucket, which you order separately.
Will my grout color change because of this? The intensity of the original color does not change.
Can this also be used on my balcony or terrace? No. These additives are poorly resistant to UV radiation and are therefore only intended for indoor use. For outdoor use, use a regular EVO color without effect.
How do I prevent the powder from scattering? Pour it slowly into the already mixed bucket and keep the mixer speed low. The powder is very light, so quick pouring or hard mixing will make it swirl up.
