Best Grout Cleaners

With a name like Grout-Eez, the people behind this product had the obligation to deliver on the premise. And, honestly, we'd say they did a pretty good job of that. All you need to do is spray the substance on porcelain or ceramic tiles, let the solution sit there for about 10 minutes, and get right to it. With the help of just about any brush, you'll be able to clear the tiles clean. Aside from grime and dirt, the cleaner just as well removes mold, so you'll be able to keep the shower grout in a top-notch condition.

The product does not change the original color of the tiles. Instead, it brings back the color that they used to have before years of faithful service. The grout cleaner works outdoors just as well as indoors. It is a really strong solution, so we wouldn't recommend using it on natural stone. But, as we've said earlier, both porcelain and ceramic are fair game.

In fact, the strength of the formula might be the only downside to this product. It's so effective that it could cause real harm to your mucosa, so make sure not to inhale the cleaner. But it doesn't contain any fumes, so you won't end up with burn marks if you accidentally get some of it on your hands. Just rinse your hands under water and you should be fine.

Long story short, the Floor Guys Grout-Eez is one of the strongest solutions on the market right now. Even the most stubborn dirt will not stand a chance. The professional formula will help you wipe the whole place clean, so your tiles will look as good as new.

Mapei UltraCare isn't just a grout cleaner. It is also a grout colorant and sealer. Just like any other cleaner, it can be used to remove dirt build-up. So, if the only thing you want to do is restore the original color of the tiles, this thing will work just as well as the next option. But if you're in a mood to redecorate, the product is available in 12 different colors, including but not limited to bone ceramic, chocolate, light almond, harvest, toffee, and biscuit.

But the best thing about their formula is just how versatile it is. Generally speaking, grout is a mixture of water, sand, and cement. But that isn't always the case. There are different formulas out there and your standard grout cleaner doesn't always cope that well with them. Mapei UltraCare, on the other hand, works with epoxy, urethane, and acrylic grouts just as well as it does with the usual cement-based formula.

This polymer-modified colorant is just as easy to use as a regular cleaner. It helps you rejuvenate grout without any machinery and without leaving any kind of mess behind. That said, we would recommend thoroughly scrubbing the seams 48 hours before applying this solution.

Other than that, Mapei UltraCare won't be a bad fit for you if you're just looking to refresh your place and restore your tiles back to their former glory. And if you feel like trying a new look, this is easily the best choice for you.

There is a lot to like about Black Diamond UGC-QT. Dubbed as the ultimate grout cleaner, this thing is a powerhouse of cleaning solutions.

First, the substance is incredibly quick. It requires no more than a couple of minutes of preparation. After that, you're free to brush and scrub away.

It isn't weak either. In fact, it is strong enough for commercial use. Of course, the usual downside of a strong formula is an equally strong chemical smell, but it goes away in no time at all, so we really can't hold it that much against this cleaner.

Speaking of the formula and its strength, the substance is completely acid-free, so you can safely use it with white and colored grout. Its strength will allow you to remove soap scum and food spills just as easily as dirt and grime.

On top of everything else, you can use this grout steam cleaner not just with ceramic and porcelain but also marble tiles.

The most important part of a product like that is, of course, the substance itself. But we would be remiss to gloss over the design of the bottle. Unlike the majority of similar options, it comes equipped with a spray nozzle, a nice little component that makes it a little easier to distribute the cleaner.

All things considered, Black Diamond UGC-QT deserves the title of the ultimate grout cleaner. The substance is strong. The formula is more versatile than most of its competition. The design of the bottle completes the whole thing, making this particular cleaner a product to get and one of the most effective options out there.

Unless you have a Ph.D. in chemistry, you should always be wary of household chemicals. That said, there isn't much to be wary of when it comes to the STAIN-X 54232 grout cleaner. Their formula is 100% biodegradable. You can safely use it around pets and children. You won't have to wear a pair of gloves and a mask. You won't even have to open the windows.

Plus, it is completely odorless, so you won't have to deal with that usual unpleasant chemical smell that often plagues these cleaners. It doesn't include any harsh chemicals and it doesn't require much in terms of preparation.

The bottle incorporates a spray nozzle. All it takes is a few sprays and about 5 minutes of your time. After 5 minutes, you can pick up a mop or a brush and get right down to business.

Though advertised as a product with "professional strength", we can't say that this is the strongest solution on the market right now. For the most part, it will do. But you'll probably have to brush extra thoroughly in order to remove some of the more stubborn dirt and food stains.

That said, the cleaner does not lose one bit when it comes to versatility. In addition to ceramic and porcelain tiles, it works with travertine and natural stone.

To sum it up, the fact that STAIN-X 54232 grout cleaner is one of the safest solutions in its price range alone makes this product one of the best bangs for your buck. Add to that how versatile and practical the substance is and you have yourself as great of a cleaner as any of them.

As far as we can tell, there isn't much that separates Zep Commercial ZU104632 from the rest of its competition. Volume-wise, you have the usual amount of 32 ounces, enough to scrub the whole place clean quite a few times. It isn's just a grout cleaner but also a whitener, so it will help you bring back the white to your tiles.

Having said that, if we had to point out one thing about this product that makes it better than your average cleaner, it would probably have to be its bleach-free professional-strength formula. Thanks to its strength, you'll be able to easily remove the dirtiest grout lines in the kitchen, bathroom, and ceramic tile floors with little to no scrubbing.

Despite how strong it is, the substance requires between 2 to 3 minutes of drying time. Once those couple of minutes have passed, no one's stopping you from wiping your home clean.

The substance works with just about any surface. It will remove dust stains from concrete floors. You can even use it on floors with colored grout. One issue that we have with it is that you'll have to thoroughly wipe the floors after using this cleaner. Otherwise, the floors get uncomfortably slippery.

In short, the only thing holding the Zep Commercial ZU104632 back is the price. But if you're willing to shell a few extra bucks, we couldn't recommend this cleaner highly enough. The solution is as effective as it is practical, making the cleaning process a lot less tiresome.
