Where and How to Use Grout Shield’s Clear Seal

Grout needs to be sealed. If not, it will absorb everything it comes in contact with such as dirt, water, food, debris, mold, and more. Grout Shield’s clear grout sealer is perfect for outside sidewalks, concrete, buildings, and new grout installations. Water just beads right off the grout sealer, which means your grout lines are protected from Mother Nature.

Grout Shield’s grout clear sealer can be used to seal new tile and grout installations, as well as all natural stones and outside concrete. With Grout Shield’s clear sealer, you can protect your newly laid tile and grout from becoming stained, dirty and discolored.

What to Do if You Stained Your Grout

What to Do if You Stained Your Grout

Accidents happen. Spills, dirt, pet’s relieving themselves, mold – you name it, your tile and grout lines are up against a lot of gross things. Since grout absorbs everything it comes in contact with, it will stain easily. So, what can you do if, for example, you spilled soy sauce or red wine into your white grout lines? Or, if your children trekked mud in after a rainy day?

Your first plan of attack is to clean your grout with a proper grout cleaner. Most regular household cleaners are not formulated to get tough grout stains out. Also, most regular cleaners are too harsh and will actually breakdown your grout. You want to use Grout Shield’s Grout & Tile Deep Cleaner, which cleans and lifts deep stains out of the grout’s pores. To use this product, you mix 1 ounce of the cleaner with 8 ounces of warm water. Then, brush the cleaner into the grout with a brush applicator. Let the mixture sit into the grout lines for a few minutes. After the cleaner sits, wipe away the cleaner with a sponge and towel dry the floor. The discoloration will be gone. read more

Cleaning Your Grout is Good for Your Health

Cleaning Your Grout is Good for Your Health

Cleaning your grout can keep you healthier – really? How so? Well, most grout is porous, which means it absorbs everything it encounters if not protected by a grout sealer. Grout can hold onto germs, bacteria, viruses, chemicals, mold, mildew, fungus, and more – all of these things can make you sick.

You’re exposed to these bad germs/bacteria every time you walk on grout, take a shower near grout, or eat near grout. Your young children, who often play on the floor, are exposed to the nasty germs. You don’t want to become sick from these hidden bad things in your home.

Mold and bacteria can lead to a lot of health problems for you and your family. With mold and mildew, you could get itchy skin, irritated eyes, and respiratory problems.

If the tile in your bathroom or kitchen is dirty looking or smells, there’s a good chance you have dirt, mold, or mildew build-up. Because of this, you’re exposing yourself to a toxic environment. With the right grout cleaner, you can clean up, kill, and wipe away all the germs, dirt, and mold for good – you’ll get your grout clean looking and free of filth! read more
