Grouting is really two jobs: packing the joints, and then cleaning up everything the float smeared across the tile. Most floats are decent at the first and make a mess of the second. The TruBlue's pure urethane face is what changes that math — it's non-stick, so grout releases from it instead of clinging and dragging across the surface. Less grout left on the tile means a faster, easier wash-down, and that's the time you actually get back.
It doesn't give up anything on the packing side, either. The face is balanced between firm and forgiving, so it drives grout deep into joints without digging, chattering, or pulling material back out, and the professional 3-1/2" x 9" size covers ground quickly on floors and walls. A comfortable molded handle keeps you in control when you're an hour into a big floor. It handles cementitious and high-performance grouts alike. For tight corners and niches, keep the TruBlue margin float in the bucket; if epoxy is on the spec, the epoxy float is the right tool. Then wash down with a proper grout sponge.
Pro tip: Work the float diagonally across the joints at about 45° to pack them full without pulling grout back out, then make a final light pass to strike off the excess. Wash the face before the grout cures on it — the urethane stays non-stick if you don't let it build up.
