Got a Dremel tool? They make a tip specifically for that purpose. Check
www.dremel.com to get the model number for the tip, so some teenager at the
store doesn't try and give you the wrong thing. You'll also need a breather
mask, safety goggles, and a 6-pack to complete the job. Maybe earplugs,
unless you're already deaf from years of loud music.

be sure to use sealer in the replacement grout. mix 1/2 sealer and 1/2 water
when you mix the grout.

Right - just mix any sealer with water when mixing grout. And then see what kind
of mess you end up with.

Maybe first you should ask the grout and sealer manufacturers if they think this
is a good idea.
