Tips & FAQs about the RocKit Grout Gun
Q: The grout gun seems to be plugged and does not operate like in the video.
- Silicone spray on the inner wall of the barrel will eliminate the resistance of the tight tolerance needed
for the plunger to seal tightly. - If the grout gun was not properly cleaned previously, residue on the inside of the barrel will cause the
plunger to stick. Use a 3" wire wheel to resurface the inner walls of the barrel then re-coat with silicone
spray. - Ensure proper hole size in tip. Grout is simply sand and lime suspended in water, if too much pressure
is required to force the material through a hole that it cannot flow through, water is squeezed out and
hardened material is all that is left in the barrel. Continuing to squeeze the trigger, with a mechanical
advantage of 18:1, pressure will continue to build. The result will never be that of solid material flowing
through a tiny hole.

The RocKit Grout Gun has become extremely popular since its release in the fourth quarter of 2007. Many of the professional rock and tile installers see an immediate increase in efficiency. Because of the semi-rigid tip, the RocKit is used like a normal caulk tube in that you smooth the grout joint as it is applied. This allows you to apply the mortar in one step, unlike grout bags where you apply twice as much mortar and then remove half of it after it starts to set up. Professional installers admit that placing the rock is the fun and easy part. Grouting is the hard part and it is the determining factor in the overall appearance of the project. Whether you are installing cultured, manufactured stone, natural rock veneer, tuck pointing thin brick, tile or just tuckpointing old brick, with the RocKit Grout Gun everyone can have professional results.
