Excellent video! I was literally 2 seconds from purchasing a drill brush set! Thinking what a great idea. But now....I guess it will be just get on my hands and knees with a gentle brush and see how it goes. Thanks again for sharing your knowledge.
I watched about 5 different videos.yes baking soda will leave a powdery residue that has to be sucked up by wet mop or vacuum and powder will make it appear whiter. But they usually recommend resealing grout anyway.and some products are going to break down any sealer anyway.maybe vinegar,oxygen bleach,hydrogen peroxide,lemon juice might break down sealer anyway.i think I would rather use drill brush then scrubbing.just don't need to run over grout too much since it's way more effective than hand scrubbing.i just think it's good to reseal after all clean and dry.especially if seal is old..frankw
@@moniquenoverola7843 If you don't mind sealing after cleaning, then I totally get wanting to use the drill brush. Most of my house is tile, so I'd rather stick with my steam mop most of the time. Thanks for the comment!
I had used that baking soda and peroxide in the past, and lordy I thought I would never get that powdery film off my floors. What a mess I had. Thanks for the heads up on dawn and hot water.
Simple solution for getting rid of baking soda: When you are done cleaning with it, mop with vinegar solution. It combines with baking soda to make sodium acetate. That is very water soluble, so it's easy to wipe up with a damp mop.
The bad side of using vinegar, especially undiluted, on floors is that it strips the sealer on grout. And, eventually it would breakdown and etch the grout. 😊
@@AbbottsAtHome Yes, it has to be diluted quite a bit. When it stops foaming, all the baking soda is converted, so time to remove with a clean water mopping. This will happen instantly, and leaves no vinegar behind.
Thanks for sharing. I usually avoid bleach and things like toilet cleaner because they strip the sealer off of grout. So, I'd have to seal the grout every time I used them, or the grout would just get stained faster.
I don't understand why everyone is saying baking soda and peroxide. I thought it was awful and messy. It did not do a good job of cleaning my grout. But my grout is super super dirty. I'll try just the peroxide.
Great video! I just discovered your channel. What a find! They are so informative! May I know information on your tile. Where did you buy it and the name? I would like to buy them for a remodeling project. Thank you and keep up the great work.
Just curious, do you know what type of brush was used on the drill? I know they come in several different forms, soft to coarse... Thank you, great video!
