not trying to be a smart a@s but the break down is on the bag....but f no directions.....mix it like very thick pan cake batter....always add wet to dry on this( put ur dry mix in a bucket and then slowly add water until u get the mix right.....if too wet the grout will shrink and settle so keep it dry mix!)

Think of it like thick cake icing, or like the plaster you buy in a bucket at the store. After you squeegy the grout into your lines you can start to sponge the tiles clean immediately if you want. How much you remove or how wide your lines are is up to you. If you remove too much you can always fix it.

i helped my uncle do this before but we never did exact mesuring. We would pour the powder in first and then the water and use a mixer attachment for a power drill. that helped a ton, i cant imagine having to do it by hand. It would be a dark grey when we used it. Sorry i dont have an actual measurement, we did it by feel.

you can buy ready mixed grout.
otherwise the grouit you have bought should reccomend the ratio on the bag.
