Really Boring Stuff Only III: Resurrection

Which one did you go with? I have tried a few and I can't find one that I love.

I went to settings > language and input > and then switched the default keyboard from the Samsung keyboard to a different one.

Right now I'm using the swype keyboard. It sure isn't perfect but it's a lot better than the Samsung keyboard so far.

I hate cleaning grout. Hate it.

Well, to be more accurate - I hate working to clean grout, only to have it not get clean. Actually cleaning it would be nice.

Get your hands on some 35% H2O2. There is also 50% available, but it's too reactive. The peroxide will bleach out the grout lines and remove the organics. It only takes a very small amount drizzled on the grout only.

magic eraser for grout, amazing...

Use a nalgene wash bottle and a good pair of nitril or PVC gloves with peroxide. This ain't the cheap stuff you get at the local drug store.

When you finally get it clean (up to your standards) you should think about maybe applying some type of grout sealer to help ease the pain next time.

Thanks, Dave. Will that turn colored grout white? My grout is not white.

Thanks. I've been using the Mr. Clean Magic Eraser for years on the grout - cleans the surfaces stains, but not what is under the surface. Oxiclean does a decent job, though.

Clean and Seal Grout

Thanks. I sealed it per the installers directions (and used the stuff that I had to go to the professional store to get), but it got dirty fast anyway. I certainly might have sealed it wrong. Once I get it clean...if I ever do...I'll be sealing it again.

What is under your surface stains? how many layers of stains do you have, maybe you need to regrout, lol... My housekeeper uses the sponges and my grout looks new, she only does it once a month....

What is under your surface stains?

My guess would be oil and dirt from Niki's skin that has soaked through. The grout is primarily dirty where she lays down.

Yeah, but she probably uses some secret Polish bacon-based cleanser on it. Better not tell your wife that, or you'll never have clean grout again.

Do you work for Norton, now?

Glory to Ukraine !!!!!

 

[Adam]

Glory to Ukraine !!!!!

Yes, I got it...I was kidding.

 

[Adam]

I want stuff from the store, but I don't want to have to go there.

Hey, Irv, is your housekeeper looking to move to Tucson?
