Been Installing Tiles For 30 Years I've Never Seen Such a Technique! Clean Grouts
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
The joints between the tiles become dirty and black over time, and it is often difficult to clean these joints. That's why in this video we showed you how you can renew your joints. If you want to re-whiten your dirty joints, be sure to watch this video on how to clean tile joints.

I worked for a huge commercial tile company 30 years ago.We did malls, hospitals, buildings, etc. They bought these huge grout washing machines from Germany. These things had a big wash tub on small casters, that had a circular sponge that was about 18" wide and 4' in diameter. the machine kind of worked like an old timey washing machine with several sets of rollers the 3 HP motor pushed the sponge thru. You could clean tile faster than 4 experienced grouters could grout. We could grout several thousand feet of tile in one day. If you knew how to operate the machine, you did not have to go back to clean any grout haze, other than a spot here or there. Amazing machine..

I cleaned an enormous area of grout in my home one month ago with Lysol toilet bowl cleaner and I am so happy with the result. Applied blue Lysol toilet bowl cleaner to the grout lines, let sit 15 minutes, scrub grout with a wire grout brush, wipe away toilet bowl cleaner with a towel. It took me one week, four hours per day to do a kitchen, bathroom, laundry room and hall. I divided the job into 4 hour sessions because the fumes from the product can be strong and irritating. Twenty year old grout looks almost new!

@@johnbannister501 Many tiles are porcelain which toilet are. Natural or non man made tiles such as slate may etch or colour change, you could test a small area first. Other cleaning options are vinegar or steam cleaning. A lot depends on how bad or deep the damage or black mold has gone into the grout. Sometimes the neglect has gone to far and replacement is the only option.

I've used this grout removal and regrouting technique to refresh all the old dirty grout between all my floor tiles and wall tiles in kitchen, laundry and bathrooms, bit-by-bit, over many years. A big and successful project. I found it generates a lot of dust, simultaneous vacuum cleaning is essential. The multitool also chews through a lot of these expensive carbide grout removal blades. But the really pleasing end result justifies the expense and effort. I used Davco Rejuvenation Grout (Antique Lace colour). It comes premixed in small pails, a bit expensive, but lends itself to working in small areas when I had small amounts of free time available. This grout is designed to stick to existing grout which means that you only have to remove a small depth of old dirty grout crust, doesn't have to be removed all the way down to the floor substrate. I used a small tiling sponge in alternating half-circular motions to flush the regrout lines with the surface of the tiles, and a microfibre cloth to polish off the fresh haze left over on the tiles after final sponge clean - don't wait too long because the dried haze is hard to remove, requires real sweaty effort. If/when it dries out slightly and gets a bit stiff in the pail, I just added some water and used a scraper to stab/mix the water in to make it nice and buttery again, like thick yoghurt. No need to throw any away, just spray surface of pail contents with water, keep pail closed and store inside a plastic bag in a cool place.

So the house I currently owe was renovated by the previous owner. He did all kinds of upgrades and fixed things and did them very well but the o e thing he did do that I realize was pure genius was using coloured grout in the bathroom and kitchen. At first I thought it was odd but now realize how smart. Easy to clean and if it was white grout would drive me nuts. My buddy pointed that out after he got his kitchen done and had white grout installed. Said he should have gone with dark grey like mine. Cool video though.

You're going go be doing that all the time with that light of a grout. Interesting application.
Very clear nice job
The reason why new clean grout get dirty over time is because wet sloppy mopping of the floor causes fine dirt particles to settle and embed into down into grout lines, making them grimy and uncleanable over time. Once you have finished grouting or regrouting, only use a damp finger-type damp mop with a spinning bucket to clean the floor, so no dirt-contaminated water slops into the grout grooves. I've been cleaning my regrouted tile floor with a damp finger mop for a few years now, grout line still look great! I guess it has also helped that I sealed the fresh dry regrout lines with a waterproofing sealer recommended by the regrout manufacturer.

Lol ok.. Don't do this. Grout needs to be worked into the joints by hand. This will prevent voids from forming in the grout lines. It also allows you to see where the grout has filled the joint entirely and where it has not. Work in small areas and batches.. avoid black grout as it is a bitch to clean up. However, if it's a high traffic area black is particle.

the easiest way to remove grout is with a cordless grinder with a thin metal cutting blade ! It is a very dusty process so is not suitable for every type of job . The grout shown in this example is far too wet . Being a cement product grout needs to mixed with the minimum of water and should be tooled into the joints . A washboard is the best way to wash off excess grout . The 45^ wipe is the most even way to wash off .

I've done this so many times for customers. Having relatively no dust is great. I also use an angle grinder with two diamond blades and a dust extractor .On large area I would use a Rubi long handled grouting squeegee. A day or so after the grout has cured I would seal the grout with Lithofin sealer. It is great stuff. I even use it on showers and kitchens. All grouts are cement based so sealing has to be done. A mop is a dangers tool.
