How do I clean grout?
I have brick tile in my long, long hall. The light grey grout is filthy from the dogs constantly bringing in dirt on there paws. I can't get it clean, no matter what I've tried and I don't want to reseal it till it is good and clean, and it needs to be resealed but it's now grey brown, any ideas?

I have troubles with dirty paws too, Ive found it necessart to have a spray bottle and microfiber towel at the doorway for pre cleaning before entry into the house. 3-4 sprays to each paw with wiping really has helped to transfer the soil to the towel > rather than my homes floor surfaces.
Use soft scrub and a scrub brush. The bleach in it will help.

Lori,. Try using Soft Scrub on the grout. You can also make a paste of baking soda and vinegar. Put in on with a sponge, like you would grout. Let it sit for about 1 hour then wash down with a sponge and warm water. Aloha!
