Take Care Of Your Grout

download

If you have grout anywhere in your home than chances are that you’ve spent a lot of time and elbow grease trying to get those lines clean, which can be very difficult!  The best way to get this clean is to start with a solution of half vinegar, half water in a spray bottle.  Spray the grout and let sit for five minutes.  If the stain is a tough one, cover it in a paste of baking soda and water and then spray the vinegar solution and watch it foam.  With a stiff-bristled brush, scrub and rinse with plain water.  For super stuck on stains, you can use a product that contains oxygen bleach, just don’t use chlorine bleach, which can break down the grout.  If you’re past the point where cleaning your grout helps, it may be time to replace it.
