Google GROUT-cleaning, I read that bleach is not recommended and will actually turn it grout black and destroy its sealing ability.. I can't think of name of the cleaner - maybe what is in Tilex. BUt google it. YOu will enjoy the information.

I don't think it will. The Mrs uses a bunch of different type cleaners and I know she likes the bubbles and kaboom. As long as the cleaner is non abrasive, like comet or ajax then it should be ok. Also try and not scrub too hard with some tough scouring pad. It's been a few months since I treated our tub and it's still great.

Interesting. I'm not having the same experience of many reviewers. My grout is in great shape with the exception of a few places. This steamer didn't do a thing. I haven't gotten it to clean much very well. I suspect I must not be using it correctly? Anyway, you will be well served to mix up a strong solution of water & oxygen bleach (Oxyclean or the like), be sure the crystals of the bleach have fully dissolved. Pour this mix over your moldy grout & let it sit for 30 minutes or so. Scrub & rinse. It should look much better--and is much easier than using this tool.

If so I have not seen it. If your grout is really dirty then you will need grout cleaner for that. It works on very mild dirt and stains (i.e. food) in the grout, but not on really established stains. Hope this helps.

To clean grout requires a special tool. Just using the steam mop will not clean up the grout.

DebbieI'm unsure about the source of the haze on your grout. It could be from soap or hard water. In a small area try warm water with a little white vinegar first.CW

I used this first and it did a very good job on the tile but didn't get the grout as clean as it could be, however, it did get it a bit cleaner than it was. After a few more cleanings it may be better. Depends on where it is, kitchens are harder to keep grout cleaner, that room (mine) is in use constantly.

Really well. I cleaned my grout before I got the machine and it had kept it nice. I have found that I do need to do a clear water rinse or the tile is a bit streaky.

I have this brush cleaner by marykay..just spray on the brush and wipe off with a towel. But when it gets really dirty, I use baby wash and warm water

Hi,I scrubbed mine with comet cleanser and then I went to bed bath and beyond and got the SQUARE stick on, they work great, the stips did not work but the squares did. Just make sure that the tub is rinsed clean of all chemicals and dry it with the hair dryer. They will work great.Hope this helps. My tub was so slippery, i fell last year.Kathy

NOPE.... best is to use Windex or product similar for glass. I used BarKeepers or KABOOM for tough spots on cast iron type of tubs/sinks. Kaboom works pretty good for many hard water stains if you clean on a regular basis.

Hi. We have light grout, and light porcelain tile. The machine did an excellent job of cleaning both. I used the black scrubber first because I wasn't sure if the orange scrubber would be too harsh. Black did a good job. Then I tried orange scrubber on really filthy areas, and it was excellent. I would just say be careful which scrubber you use because porcelain tile instructions say use black scrubber. Does that help?

You probably could, but, scouring is probably not the recomended method. There are cleaners out there that would do a fairly good job without ruining the finish on the tub. Talk to your hardware store expert. I believe Kaboom may be one of their suggestions. Remember that stains, lime build up an soap scum may take different products to do the cleaning. Good luck!

Not this. Just use a tile and grout cleaner and those Magic eraser sponges are awesome. Don't use simple green cleaner because it colors the grout!

Try Tilex mildew cleaner Also try Clorox foaming cleaner...it comes in a white spray bottle like the Tilex (it can be hard to find but our Target carries it) as it works on about anything!

I would try a Mixture of Proxide and Water. Proxide will help keep the tile White,as it Cleans. For the 21oz bottle Go 4oz of Proxide and the rest Water. With the micro fiber you will see more dirt come off the Floor. Hope this works for you.

It will work to do away with mildew, etc. I am sure it must have some cleaners in it to clean surfaces and I guess the only way to find out if it will meet your needs is to try a patch. This product cleaned surfaces for me (grout included) after many other products failed. Good luck.
