Cleaning Shower Ceramic Tile & Grout: What Works and What …

How on earth do you clean shower grout & ceramic tile and what products work best?

This was a question I was pondering while taking a shower the other day. Primarily because the grout on our showers ceramic floor wasnt looking so good.

I try to keep our shower clean, but with two adults and two kids its pretty darn hard to maintain Mr Cleans level of tidiness (hey, the guy has no hair and that helps a lot with keeping showers looking immaculate).

We have small 2 inch by 2 inch square tiles on our shower floor (sound familiar) and my primary goal was to determine the best way to clean them. I also wanted to see if the same solution used to clean the ceramic tile could clean the grout.

Heres the list of products tested

Ive read so many articles on the awesomeness of OxiClean (oxygenated bleach) and wanted to see for myself how it would work on ceramic tile & grout.

My wife bought Eco Orange Citrus Cleaner from a salesperson in our neighborhood because its supposedly non-toxic and kid friendly. Weve used it for general cleaning and it seemed like a good thought to try it on the shower, too.

And as a last resort I tried Chlorox bleach. Its not my preference due to the noxious fumes and likelihood youll ruin your clothes using it.

Admittedly I hit a road block the first few times I used OxiClean. Ill share my experience because it sheds light on the amount of OxiClean I found to have the most power. At the very least youll want to scroll through the pictures since I was growing my cheesy moustache to raise money for prostate cancer awareness.
