Grout is the hardened mixture found in tile joints on walls and floors in bathrooms and kitchens. Grout not only helps keep shingles in place, but also seals space between tiles to prevent liquids from seeping through the base floor. Over time, the grout will become discolored or debris may stick to the seams created by the grout. Liquids can clump and dry in grout over time the grout is exhausted. Regular cleaning can keep grout looking clean and prevent grout from becoming cracked and brittle.
Instructions
1 mop or clean the tile with a cleaning solution and water mixture to remove dust and dirt. Allow to dry before continuing.
2 hold the electric or manual grout cleaning tool and place the tip on one end of the wall or on the floor on one of the grout lines.
3 Apply a slight pressure and move the tip of the cleaning tool through the grout line. Repeat this procedure for each grout line as needed. If you are using an electric tile and grout-which has a circular pad on it-simply turn on the device and transport it along the surface of both the tile and grout as a tampon until it is clean.
4 Inspect the grout lines and repeat cleaning when necessary on the soil filled grout lines.
