Black Grout Countertop

Apparently, HGTV did a countertop "using black grout, spreading it on, smooth it, let it dry, sand it smooth". Can anyone tell me more about this, or give me a link about it?

Yes!!! That HGTV site is exactly what I was looking for! And it gave me a cool idea for a backsplash too!

Here is a paragraph from the page I found the information on:

Because the quick-setting thinset sets up in about thirty minutes, you can begin grouting almost immediately. Dean and Derek use coordinating black un-sanded grout for their black countertops to further the illusion of slab granite. Mix the grout following directions.

Hope this helps!
