Saturate the grout with lemon juice, a mild disinfectant that gets rid of grout stains naturally. You can also use white vinegar for chemical-free grout cleaning. Simply pour vinegar from the bottle into the cap and pour it over the dirty grout lines. Allow the lemon juice or vinegar to sit for 10 to 15 minutes.
How long ago was the grouting applied? It could be that it is so old that it is no longer responding to your efforts at trying to clean it, or to keep it clean. In this case, it needs to be reapplied new and resealed again.
Zero shower tub and tile cleaner or Lysol toilet bowl cleaner in the black bottle. Wet and forget shower if you don’t have marble, it will clean everything and keep clean with no scrubbing. It may take a few applications to see results if seriously dirty.
