Aply elbow grease with a carbide grout tool you can purchase at the local home center. Select a small area and slide the cutting edge across all the joints to sctatch the grout surface and see if it doesn’t make the differance. There are products that will clean/rejuvenate grout however, some sealers may block their effectiveness. Good luck and eat your Wheaties. Lol.
Home Depot sells a product called POLYBLEND GROUT RENEW. It is an all-in-one colorant and sealer. It is stain and fade resistant. I used it on grout that was inconsistent with other grout in various areas of my bathroom and kitchen. It works well, but you do need to work quickly with it!
My tiles were sealed for 2yrs. I cleaned them with a mixture of Baking Soda and white vinegar, scrub into grout lines leave on for about 10mins. wipe off.... the results were amazing..It really worked...
Home Depot has grout pens in many colors, including white & tan. I did my white kitchen tiles about 2 years ago & it still looks great. It's so easy.
I covered the tub with plastic and used limeaway and a groutting brush. took very little time and came out pure white. Make sure to reseal.
Just buy the marker-type white, grout re-sealer. You might need a couple, but they work great!
GET a white out pen (used for correcting typing errors on paper) & run over the entire area between the tiles with it. Let it dry. Reseal & dry completely OR white paint & a tiny paint brush (or piping bag) & paint in between the tiles & reseal OR regrout & seal.
I rented an apartment the tile in bathroom was really gross i used white shoe polish used on baby shoes when it dries just buff off tiles and looks great will have to repeat over time but worked
Not everyone has white grout. Mine is a very light offwhite. What do I use?
I am not sure if this will work but Make a paste of baking soda and peroxide then apply it to your grout with a toothbrush. Let it sit a little and then remove with a clean cloth.
