How to Fix Cracked Grout with Grout Shield

Countertops usually settle, which often times means, you can find broken or missing grout in between the backsplash and the tile – this looks awful. It looks like your backsplash is old and broken. How can you repair this without retiling your entire backsplash? It is possible to do with Grout Shield products.

Here’s what you do:

  • Take a paper towel and measure it to the size of the crack.
  • Place it behind the crack. Push it in.
  • Get some grout to fill in the crack.
  • Mix in Grout Shield color sealer in the grout to match the color of the other grout.
  • Get a rubber trowel and bucket of water with a big sponge.
  • Spread the grout on the trowel and then push it in to the missing grout areas.
  • You can then use your finger to make a nice trim.
  • Take sponge to wipe off excess.

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

If you’ve tried to clean your grout before, you probably spent hours scrubbing with no progress. Most cleaners out there cannot lift stains from grout, or they are too harsh and will destroy the grout.

You need quality grout cleaners and sealers to never get stains on your grout lines again.
