After setting tile, you should typically wait 24 hours before grouting to allow the adhesive to cure properly. However, the exact waiting time can vary based on the type of thin-set mortar used, so it's essential to check the manufacturer's recommendations. If the tiles were set with a fast-setting mortar, you may be able to grout sooner, but always ensure the tiles are firmly in place first.
The general rule is to wait 18 to 24 hours before walking on or grouting.
To transform a shower from dull to dramatic, tile a shower wall. Here's how to do it: Step 1: Measure the walls carefully; shower walls are seldom perfectly square and plumb. Do a dry layout of the tile (including spacers) on the floor using your measurements. Step 2: Working in a small section, spread thinset with a notched trowel and press the tile into place. Step 3: When the tile has set - typically about 24 hours - you can apply the grout. Mix grout in small batches that you will be able to use within 20 to 30 minutes. Step 4: Wait 24 hours and apply sealer to all the joints - and the tile if recommended. Natural stone and some other tiles will need a sealer to keep them from absorbing water. Gazed porcelain and ceramic tiles are already sealed.
In order to answer that, I need to know the position of ABCD with respect tothe x-axis before the reflection process begins.But wait! What light through yonder window breaks ? ! On second thought, maybe I don't.If D is the point (x, y) before the reflection, then D' is the point (x, -y) after it.
Technically speaking, especially with the more modified thinsets, you're supposed to stay off it for 72 hours but so long as you're not twisting and turning on it while grouting, you should be fine. You don't want to open it to normal traffic for a couple of days, and you DON'T want anyone rolling or carrying any kind of weight for a week (like a fridge, or gas stove-- things like that).

You will need a grout saw and grout scraper to remove the old grout. Then use an epoxy grout meant for swimming pool use, and work in small areas at a time. Choose a color that matches the tiles. Follow the mixing instructions on the container. When all the tiles are properly filled wait for it to dry before finishing the job with a sealant.
