Tile Grout is the ideal place for dirt and grime to hide. It also gives fungi-such as mold shaping-the ideal cropping environment. The accumulation of dirt can turn your grout of light color into an ugly mess. Chlorine bleach is a common chemical used to thoroughly clean tile grout. Unfortunately, chlorine bleach may discolor the grout from the light tile and should refrain from using unless the white grout is cleaned. Instead, use the safest alternative to chlorine that will not cause grout to discolor.
Instructions
Dissolve 1 1 cup of powdered oxygen bleach in 1 gallon of warm water. Mix chlorine and water together with a long-handled spoon. Gently transfer the mixture into a spray bottle.
2 Mist The grout of the light tile with the oxygen bleach mixture and let stand for 15 minutes. The oxygen whitener will clean the grout while killing mildew and mildew persistent.
3 Spray A small section of the grout with the mixture and begin rubbing with a toothbrush. Clean the excess mixture of the tiles with a damp cloth.
4 Repeat step 3 until you have thoroughly cleaned the grout from the light tile. For difficult-to-remove stains, allow the oxygen bleach mixture to sit in the grout for 30 minutes.
