Yes, it is possible to put epoxy grout over cement-based grout. However, it is essential to dig the existing cement out of the joints until its halfway the tile’s depth before doing this process. Scraper or the grout saw is the most appropriate tool to use for this case. This depth is vital for the new epoxy grout so it can adhere to the tile edges and the remaining sanded grout. For overhead installation, it is crucial to leave the epoxy in the bucket for a few minutes after mixing so it can set up. Through this, the epoxy mixture becomes stiffer and tackier.
The one sole difference between epoxy grout and cement grout is cement is made of some cement powder whereas epoxy grout is made up from epoxy resins and filler powder, which however makes epoxy grout more durable, reliable & Stain proof. When it comes to cement grout, then this is the cheap grouting option as compared to epoxy grout because of its porous nature. It can easily absorb water and so stain that results in discoloration over time. Benefits of epoxy grout is that It is waterproof, durable , long lasting and stain proof. So its preferred that one should use epoxy grout rather than cement grout.
