How to Remove Ink from Grout

How to Remove Ink from Grout

Doing a craft or art project and using ink? Ink is drippy. It’s also permeates materials quickly. Unfortunately, it can be easy to splatter or spill pink. Ink can easily stain tile and grout, and it can also be difficult to remove from household surfaces.

If you or your child accidentally spills ink on the floor, don’t worry! Our team at Grout Shield can help you get rid of that ink stain for good. You’ll never know it was there!

In most homes, grout is white or a lighter color, which means it can easily show ink, which come in all sorts of colors. Since it is porous, grout will absorb all the pigments of the art supplies. Both dark and light ink can stain easily, and grout can be difficult to clean, so this is a bad combination. With the right grout cleaning and sealing products, it will look like the ink stains never happened.

Most DIY cleaning articles may tell you to clean up the markers and/or paint with bleach, ammonia or white vinegar. These chemicals may work, but they also aren’t really cleaning the grout, and many of these chemicals can cause the grout to crack or break. read more
