Pazil; should I have not used sanded caulk? I thought it was grout. Will I be able to grout over this since it has shrunk so much or should I be removing the caulk first?

I'm loving the color, it is looking good! According to my fiance (he's a contractor) you should take out the caulking between the tiles and replace it with regular grout, then seal.

According for my 2 year old I should do the same thing, since he's already started it for me. My bad for leaving my tools laying around.

Remove the caulking and use the sanded grout. You can use the color matched sanded caulking for the joints that meet the wood. If you try to grout those joints the caulking will crack. If you need any other help you can PM me I am always around.

Looking great. Can't wait to see the final pics......

Do you still run your RO with the carbon filter? You may want to consider removing as I noticed TDS to climb quickly with it on. I own an Aqua-Safe as well, are they even still in business?

I never knew that the carbon raised the TDS. Yes I still run it. As far as I know Aqua-safe has new owners and will be up and running again soon.
