How to Clean Grout in the Bathroom

After time bathroom grout will begin to start looking gross. These are a some techniques to clean up that bathroom grout:

You can use a circular typewriter eraser to erase the dirt between tiles. Just rub it down the grout. Most typewriter erasers will come with a small brush to clear the eraser leavings.

Old toothbrushes are great for scrubbing mildew on the grout or areas where mold will grow. Hard to remove stains can be covered with an abrasive powder that contains bleach. Make a paste with the powder and let it sit for AT LEAST 30 minutes. Afterwards, scrub and rinse the area with warm water. You can find a variety of commercial products to eliminate mildew, but they usually contain bleach also.

Keep your grout looking new by gently rubbing it with a piece of fine grain sandpaper. To keep the grout looking this way simply coat it with tile sealer.
