Whiter is Nicer: How to Make Your Kitchen and Bathroom Tile Grout Sparkle Like New with Bleach
Posted on | November 17, 2009 | No Comments
If you’ve tried cleaning your bathroom tile grout to no avail, and you’ve even tried the power of baking soda, and you still see stains, you may need to bring in the big guns and go in for the kill.
In order to really make things shine again and get a bathroom ready for guests or even an open house, you need to harness the power of bleach.
Note: While using bleach, it’s important to keep your own safety in mind. Use rubber gloves when dealing with harsh chemicals like bleach and even safety goggles to prevent the dangerous liquid from getting in your eyes. This stuff is powerful, but potentially harmful. You will also want to wear clothes that are older and don’t mind getting stained if some bleach splashes on them.
Now, you’ll use a similar formula as the bleach solution, but instead of 1/4 cup water, use 1/8 cup bleach and 1/8 cup water. If you’re really serious, you can try using a full 1/4 cup bleach. Combine this with 4 tablespoons of baking soda and create a paste. Soak the grout with this paste for 20 minutes and then scrub the dirt and grime away with a dirt destroying tool for cleaning grout.
After you’ve applied the paste to all dirty sections, scrubbed it away and rinsed the tile, you should be staring a a bathroom or kitchen that sparkles like new!
