How to Remove Marker from Grout

How to Remove Marker from Grout

 

Kids love to draw and paint, which is wonderful, but what isn’t so wonderful is when markers and paint get onto our countertops and floors. Markers and paint can easily stain tile and grout, and they can also be difficult to remove from household surfaces.

If your child accidently spills paint on the floor or colors on the floor, don’t worry! Our team at Grout Shield can help you get rid of that colored 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 markers and paint, 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 markers 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 marker 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 actually cause the grout to crack or break. read more

How to Remove Coffee Stains from Grout

How to Remove Coffee Stains from Grout

We’ve all spilled a cup of coffee. Or maybe, the coffee pot overflowed. Whatever the reason, our “cup of Joe” has landed on the counter or floor. Unfortunately, coffee is dark and can stain anything it comes in contact with easily like clothing, fabrics, and even grout lines.

Coffee is brown-colored, which means it shows up easily on grout lines that are light colored. Since it is porous, grout will absorb all coffee that lands on it. With the right grout cleaning and sealing products, you can clean up the coffee and it will look like the coffee spill never happened. Remember, you want to clean coffee stains immediately, so the stain is easier to clean up.

Our team at Grout Shield can help you get rid of coffee stains for good. You’ll never know it was there! Besides getting rid of the discoloration, Grout Shield products also rid the grout of bacteria and other harmful germs that get absorbed into the grout lines.

Most home-cleaning articles may tell you to clean up the coffee stains with bleach, ammonia or white vinegar. Sure, these chemicals and products may work, but they also aren’t really cleaning the grout (For example: ammonia contains no cleaning agents), and many of these chemicals can actually cause the grout to crack or break. read more

How to Clean Tomato Sauce from Grout Above and Around Stove

Who doesn’t love a pasta dinner? Although delicious, the meal can be very messy. Pasta sauce easily splashes, whether you’re eating it, cooking it, stirring it, or serving it. Don’t even think about wearing white while making a pasta dinner! Now, months, and even years, of cooking pasta sauces, and other sauces have likely splattered sauces onto your backsplashes and countertops. Sauce can be easy to wipe off tiles, but the spots can easily absorb into the grout lines and stain your grout.

Tomato-based stains are some of the most common and hardest to clean. Being red, pasta sauce shows up easily on grout lines that are light colored. Since it is porous, grout will absorb all sauce that lands on it. With the right grout cleaning and sealing products, you can clean up the sauce and it will look like the splatters never happened. Remember, you want to clean sauce stains immediately, so the stain is easier to clean up.

Our team at Grout Shield can help you get rid of pasta sauce stains for good. You’ll never know it was there! Stains around your stove from sauce can make your kitchen look really old and dirty, even if you clean it regularly. read more

How to Remove Soy Sauce Stains from Grout

If you’re eating an Asian-inspired dinner or just enjoy soy sauces and Worcestershire condiments for flavor on your meals, you run the risk of staining your backsplashes and tile floors with the dark coloring. Splashes and spills happen, and dark-condiment sauces stain fast and easily. They can also be difficult to remove from household surfaces.

If you happened to spill a dark sauce onto your grout lines, don’t fret! Our team at Grout Shield can help you get rid of that stain for good. You’ll never know it was there!
