Litokol Starlike EVO is a two-component epoxy grout, here in Grigio perla (110) color. The colored paste and the hardener are together in one bucket. You can use it to grout ceramic, porcelain stoneware and mosaic, and the same product can also be used as tile adhesive.
Color & Atmosphere
Grigio perla (110) is a light pearl gray with a warm undertone. On concrete-look and gray stoneware, it blends into the tile, making the floor a single, calm surface instead of a grid.
Product & Application
Starlike EVO is intended for joints from 1 to 15 mm, on floors and walls, indoors and outdoors. The cured joint is non-absorbent and stain-resistant. The color comes from sintered quartz spheres that are colored on the surface, meaning no pigment is left on the tile and cleaning is easier.
- Ceramic tiles, porcelain stoneware and single or double-fired tiles
- Ceramic and glass mosaic
- Large format tiles and thin laminated stoneware slabs
- Marble, granite, natural stone and reconstituted stone
- Terracotta and clinker
- Wet rooms, showers, swimming pools, fountains, spas and hammams
- Terraces, balconies, facades and floors with heavy traffic
For natural stone, polished porcelain stoneware and porous materials, the manufacturer always prescribes making a test joint first. This determines whether the material absorbs the resin or is difficult to clean. Tuscan terracotta and other porous articles such as concrete curbs are outside the scope of application.
Substrate & Compatibility
When used as a grout, Starlike EVO is applied to joints that are clean, dust-free and open for the full tile thickness. First check whether the tile adhesive is completely dry and cured. If you use it as an adhesive, the substrate must be clean, load-bearing, crack-free and free from rising damp.
- Screeds and leveling compounds
- Concrete and plasterwork
- Underfloor heating
- Waterproofing layers, including Coverflex and Aquamaster EVO
- Metal substrates, for example in prefabricated bathrooms
- Wooden kitchen countertops with tiles or mosaic
Butt joints without space are not allowed, and plastic tile spacers must be removed before grouting. For the elastic sealing of expansion, corner and connection joints, do not use epoxy grout but a sealant from the Pixel 3D line.
Processing
Cut open the bag of hardener and completely empty it into the bucket with part A; roll up the bag so that nothing is left behind. Mix with a slow-rotating mixer of approximately 300 rpm until a creamy, lump-free mass is formed, and scrape the wall and bottom of the bucket afterwards. Manual mixing is not recommended.
- Process between +10 °C and +30 °C, most favorably between +18 °C and +23 °C
- Approximately 60 minutes working time in the bucket at +23 °C
- Apply with a rubber float, diagonally to the joint direction
- Clean as long as the product is fresh: first white felt, then a damp sponge
- Walkable after 24 hours, fully loadable after 5 days, swimming pools after 7 days
Haze and residues can be removed from the tile after approximately 24 hours with Litonet EVO for floors or Litonet Gel EVO for walls. After that, the product can only be removed mechanically. Do not apply anything if the temperature drops below +10 °C within 24 hours, protect the work from direct sunlight and strong drafts for the first 12 hours, and do not cover the fresh joint — wait 48 to 72 hours before placing breathable material over it.
Key Features

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I also use Starlike EVO as tile adhesive? Yes. You spread it with the smooth side of the trowel to about 1 mm and then comb it up with the notched side. Grouting can be done after about 24 hours.
How long do I have after mixing? Approximately 60 minutes at +23 °C. In warm weather, this will be faster, so quickly spread the product over the floor instead of leaving it in the bucket.
What if I remove residues too late? After curing, epoxy can only be removed mechanically. Therefore, remove haze within approximately 24 hours with Litonet EVO for floors or Litonet Gel EVO for walls.
May I clean the grouted floor with bleach? No. The manufacturer advises against bleach: if not sufficiently diluted or rinsed, the grout may yellow, which is particularly noticeable on light colors. Also, do not use aggressive cleaners for the first five days.
