what is the best way to clean grout between ceramic tiles

Cleaning Your Bathroom With Steam One of the best steam cleaner tips I have ever received was how to clean my bathroom from top to bottom with it. And I don’t mean just making it superficially clean, but cleaning it on a level that I haven’t been able to do before. A real deep cleaning that not only makes my bathroom look and smell clean, but gives me quite a bit of confidence that it is clean on a microscopic level as well.If you don’t know that steam cleaners not only do a good job of removing dirt and grime, but also kill many dangerous microorganisms, then let me tell you a few things about steam cleaners. Their hot steam can not only kill bacteria, but can also kill viruses such as streptococcus, staphylococcus, E. Coli, Hepatitis A, the common cold and influenza. And it does it without the use of harmful cleaners such as bleach or ammonia. I think that’s a good enough reason to employ the services of this amazing machine in the bathroom. I think that many of you would agree, or so I think judging from the steam cleaner reviews I have read recently.

The Bathroom FloorYour steam cleaner can not only shine you floor up really well, but it can also clean the grout between the tiles; restoring them to a like new appearance. And by using the proper attachment, you can reach areas of the bathroom that can’t normally be reached. Like behind the toilet or alongside the sink vanity.The Shower and The TubSteam Cleaners are great at removing the soap scum and hard water stains that are left in your shower and tub. They can not only clean the porcelain and the tile, but they can also clean the faucets and the shower door. And they can do it with a lot less elbow grease than conventional cleaning methods.The Toilet And SinksIf you live in an area with hard water, then the bottom of your toilet probably looks like a disaster area. That’s because calcium and lime scale can trap the waste particles from your urine and crystal it into a brown coating that seems almost impossible to remove. However, with the help of your steam cleaner you can break up this crystallized coating and get your toilet back to pristine condition.

carpet cleaners to rent at home depot So are you ready to FINALLY get your tile floors and grout lines cleaned? I have tried a few different products over the years, ranging from homemade mixes that I found on the internet to expensive grout cleaners. All of them worked a little bit, but I always found something I didn't like about them. Some were very expensive and you needed several bottles to complete one floor, some had a very strong odor, and others required a lot of time and scrubbing. In the end, I always wound up only completing a small section of the floor before I got totally bored. One day, while desperate to clean my shower and having nothing on hand I thought i try the only cleaner I had in the house; Clorox toilet bowl cleaner with bleach. Too my surprise it worked quite well on the shower and gave it an instant cleaning.

I then started to think "well, what else can this stuff clean". I immediately thought of the dirty grout lines on my tile floor in the kitchen. I tested it on a small section and couldn't believe how fast and easy it cleaned the disgusting grout lines in my kitchen. So gather your supplies and lets begin! There really is no trick to doing this. I simply took my Clorox cleaner (its a gel, so it poured perfectly into the grout lines) and started to pour the cleaner onto about a 3 foot by 3 foot section of tile floor. I then let the gel cleaner sit on the grout lines for approximately 10 minutes. I then took my hard plastic bristle brush and lightly scrubbed the cleaner into the grout lines. I found that it really didn't take a lot of effort, the cleaner really did most of the work. I then let the scrubbed in cleaner sit for approximately another 5 minutes. Next I took a wet mop and cleaned up the cleaner. I then moved onto the next section and repeated the above steps.

The only warning I would give is to say be very careful while walking on the floor until you mop up the solution. The floor will be very slippery! I was scared at first thinking that the floor was going to stay slippery, but once I mopped the whole floor when I was done and it dried the floor was perfectly fine. The original color of my kitchen grout lines were a very light sanded gray. I also did my bathroom tile which has bright white sanded grout lines (I wish I took before and after pics because the difference in there was unbelievable). Sorry I do not have dark grout lines anywhere in my house, so I cannot tell you how the Clorox cleaner will work on those. So that's really it. One bottle of Clorox gel cleaner, one plastic hard bristle brush and a couple of hours and you will have professionally cleaned tile floor and grout lines!
