Has anyone tryed filling tile joints with expoxy grout. I understand it dries faster and is harder to get off. I thought about filling a empty caulking tube with it and applying just in the joints using a caulking gun. So, no mess no fuss! JMHO, Roger

Funny you should mention this. I just recently had to redo some grout around a newly installed kitchen sink. After playing around w/various techniques...all SERIOUSLY messy, I adapted a baking/cake decorating technique.
Get some parchment or waxed paper. Roll it so that it looks like a cone. Place your mixed epoxy grout into the open side of the cone (be careful not to overfill). Take a scissors and cut the bottom of the cone to the opening size you need. Squeeze gently into the grout lines. Smooth w/a wet finger. Alot less waste/mess and alot more control.
