Our experience with VMC traverfill has not been good. I did speak with Richard at VMC about issues and have followed directions and still had problems. Tenax has proven time and time again the way to go for us. Just my two cents.

Hey John,

You might want to check that out- I think that traverfil from VMC is just a latex modified portland cement.

They have a sanded and unsanded 25 lb pail.

They sell em for 136 bucks each.

Fill the hole with traver-fil from VMC,. This product is a powder that is
actually made to fill holes ion travertine. It will match the factory fills.
You add water and fill holes, allow to cure 24 hours and clean off any haze
left on the stone. fill the holes using a grout float. This is not grout.
Don't treat it like grout, only mix up what you can use in 5 minutes. It
cure quickly.
