Rant: My attempt to re-grout a bathroom tile turned into a 4-hour color matching nightmare.

I mixed what I thought was a perfect match, but it dried three shades lighter and now my shower looks like a patchwork quilt. Has anyone else had this happen with a specific brand of grout?

Wait, it dried three shades lighter? That's the worst kind of DIY betrayal right there.

Patchwork quilt" is the DIY standard.

That patchwork look is basically a rite of passage. I swear the color charts on those boxes are just a suggestion, not a promise. Did you use a pre-mixed grout or one of the powder ones you add water to? The powder ones are the worst for this.
