This might seem like a strange question, but stay with me:)

I have repaired some grout on my kitchen floor (8-inch tiles). The grout I used doesn't match the color of the old grout. Is there a way to paint all the grout one color-the floor area is small and I don't want to regrout the whole floor.

Any hints on what type of 'paint' to use to color the grout after it has dried completely?

Thanks in advance!

There are "grout colorants" available for just such a purpose.:)
