| MORRO BAY, CA -- Grout Getter Co. LLC has added another tool to assist in grout removal. The patent pending Corner Pro™ tool utilizes a thin tungsten carbide blade mounted vertically with two sharp angles of attack on the tile grout. This allows the user to access and scrape out grout in very hard-to-get areas. Where tile professionals and homeowners would drudgingly use screwdrivers and flimsy utility knives, they can now reach for the Corner Pro.
In 1991 Grout Getter Co. LLC developed the very popular Grout Getter™ hand tool, which uses a triangular-shaped carbide blade to remove grout. Company owner Michael Garman stated, "The professionals immediately liked using the Grout Getter scraper. It was very quick and efficient and didn't break or scratch tile like the power tools did. Our new tool helped start several grout repair companies."
Homeowners know it's almost impossible to get a tradesman to bid a small job like re-grouting around their kitchen sink or replacing a cracked tile. Now, using the Grout Removal Kit, if you're scraping grout or caulking from your sink, countertops, floors, tubs or showers, it's much easier to fix yourself, not to mention the huge cost savings.
Used as a team, the Grout Getter and Corner Pro will remove epoxy, sanded and non-sanded grouts. As the user reaches a corner, curve or tight area where the Grout Getter cannot access, the new Corner Pro steps in and rips out the grout. Tasks such as shaving concrete and mortar for the proper fit of tiles and tile liners is another benefit of these carbide scrapers. On new installations, cleaning the grout joints of thin set and debris before grouting is an important step performed by the Corner Pro as well.
The suggested manufacturer's retail price is $19.75 for the "Grout Removal Kit" (Item GRS210-P), which includes a Grout Getter with a triangle carbide blade, an extra diamond carbide blade (for thin grout joints), a changing wrench and the new Corner Pro scraper. The Corner Pro (item GE77-P) and Grout Getter (G13T) are also sold separately. Available at retailers or online.
