How Do You Clean Tub & Shower Grout?
Grout plays a very important role in your bathroom. It bonds tub and shower tiles together and helps to keep water in its rightful place. According to ThisOldHouse.com, grout also gives tiles a finished look and prevents them from cracking and chipping. Over time, however, grout may become worn and stained, causing bathroom tiles to look old and dingy. Before you decide to retile or regrout your tub and shower, there is a way to get your grout and tiles looking great again. Fill an empty spray bottle with 7 cups of warm water. Pour the baking soda, ammonia and white vinegar into the spray bottle. Shake the bottle well to mix the ingredients. Spray the cleaner onto the stained grout. Allow the cleaner to penetrate the grout for about 15 minutes. Scrub the grout thoroughly with a hard-bristled toothbrush to remove the dirt and stains. Wet a rag or sponge and wipe the grout to remove any of the remaining cleaner.
