Litokol Starlike Finishes Spotlight is a color effect that you mix into Starlike EVO as a third component. The 150-gram sachet is pre-dosed for a 5 kg bucket, so you don't have to weigh it. It is therefore not a self-contained grout, but an addition to a bucket that you purchase 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 into any color from the Starlike EVO range. The intensity of the original color does not change.
- Ceramic tiles, porcelain stoneware, and mosaic
- Clinker bricks
- Walls and floors, indoors only
- Bathrooms, kitchens, shops, and showrooms
- Furniture elements and columns
Observe the limits. Do not use a bucket with this effect outdoors - on terraces, balconies, facades, and in swimming pools - as the additives have poor resistance 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 for the bucket size: this sachet is for 5 kg
- Not for outdoor applications
- Not on surfaces with aggressive chemical exposure
The effect is most pronounced on a surface exposed to daylight or artificial light. In a dark corner, you will see little of it.
Processing
First, mix the hardener (part B) into the colored paste (part A) of Starlike EVO, using a slow-speed mixer, until a lump-free mass is obtained. Then carefully pour in this sachet and gently mix it in until it is evenly distributed.
- Pour in carefully: the powder is light and easily scatters
- Mix at low speed, otherwise the product will splatter
- Apply with a rubber float, diagonally to the joint direction
- Most favorable 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 work with, and curing then 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 5 kg bucket, which you order separately.
Does this change my grout color? The intensity of the original color does not change.
Can this also be used on my balcony or terrace? No. These additives have poor resistance to UV radiation and are therefore intended for indoor use only. 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 fast pouring or vigorous mixing will cause it to scatter.
