Now the two replacement squares are yellowing (the floor is cream to begin with) and the places between the replacement squares and the sheet vinyl next to it are very dirty. They stick out like a sore thumb!

The vinyl squares on the vinyl sheeting look like they have gray grout between the squares. How can I make the replacement square tiles look less noticable?

Could I buy some grout to match the "grout look" on the vinyl sheet and try to make the dirty lines less noticeable? Would that make it worse?

The kitchen, breakfast nook and hall are all the same vinyl sheet pattern and we can't afford to rip it all up and put something else in those rooms. We are in the process of selling our house and I looking for a "cheap" but effective fix.

thanks!
