If it's really dirty, you can use Lysol Lime & Rust Remover Toilet Bowl cleaner. In general, I clean my tile with this mixture:
1 cup baking soda
1 cup white cleaning vinegar
1 Tbsp blue Dawn
2 gallons hot water (I boil about 1/3 of mine)

Baking soda, and peroxide works really good. Also Dawn dish liquid.
Hi Nancy, we have used Norwex cleaning paste, and it works wonders. It's made from marble dust. I don't sell it, but I believe you can find it online.
Make a paste with bicard and water and cover the grout. It will need to sit for a while. Then scrub with a small brush. I found it very time consuming, I stick to bleach.
Start with vinegar and if it still needs more, make a paste with baking soda. Scrub with a small brush.
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.
Hi Nancy - This is the shower cleaner that we use to help keep grout and tiles clean and minimize the mildew - it works on kitchen grout too. I've also included a great article about mold if it's gone that far. Hope this helps! Hugs, Holly
