Help - How do I whiten tile grout

HappySad · 2020-11-15 00:04:03

Hi, Can you advise an easy or relatively easy way to make brilliant white the files group? I’ve already got rid of mould with bleach & HG mould stray and they are left in a greyish colour. All advice, information and web links most welcome. :)

If the grout isn't going to be scrubbed regularly I used canvas shoe whitener to whiten grout. The aplicator comes with it then wipe the surplus off the tiles soon after aplication or even when dry, with a dry cloth.
I did this for glazed tiles in an inglenook fireplace and once it was dry it took normal cleaning with a liquid cleaner (flash and a sponge) pretty much permanently. Just touched up odd bits as needed but so quick and good effect didn't mind.

I can rise and shine - just not at the same time!
