Does it clean unsealed tile grout?

This does not clean grout per se. It overall cleans the floor, but grout is in a depression that it cannot reach. I have found that buying a good hard grout brush and using 409 and wiping with a clean microfiber cloth works well, but is a lot of work.

This is my best solution for cleaning unsealed tile. It brings out all the color in the tile and leaves it looking really great.

Have only used it on the grout. It worked really well on stained and mildewy grout.

I clean my bathroom with this, and it never leaves a build-up on any floor. Grout between tiles always needs something a little stronger, but yes it does clean them well. I love this machine; it's lightweight, easy to use, and does a great job.

I have unsealed ceramic tile but the grout is sealed in my basement, kitchen, bathrooms and laundry room I use 1 cap full to a gallon of water. I hope that helps...

Not this. Just use a tile and grout cleaner and those Magic eraser sponges are awesome. Don't use simple green cleaner because it colors the grout!

No, I don't think any steamer will. Does a great job on tile, though. The steam disenfects but any stains on grout remain.

You have to buy the hard floor cleaner adapter to use it on non-carpeted surfaces, so I haven't tested it, but it's unlikely to do much to the grout since it doesn't scrub.

A little. It loosens some stains. But its no fault of the machine. Grout is pourous; it absorbs. So the only way to really clean grout is manually with a commercial cleaner, or with bleach and vinegar and stuff.

Google GROUT-cleaning, I read that bleach is not recommended and will actually turn it grout black and destroy its sealing ability.. I can't think of name of the cleaner - maybe what is in Tilex. BUt google it. YOu will enjoy the information.

Didn't buy it for that and haven't tried it on grout. I clean my grout with water, oxy clean and dawn dish soap with a stiff brush..

Yes - fine on porcelain; pour onto grout, soak for 15-30 seconds, scrub with grout brush, wipe off excess with wet towel on tile prior to it drying; after the scrubbing make sure you wipe up the gunk and solution with a wet towel/mop etc, let dry and seal grout (optional) - great stuff.

It does a great job sanitizing the grout lines and cleans them some too but if your grout is really dirty or discolored your best bet is to use a grout cleaner.

Yes it sure does, Obviously it causes some dust but no where near as much as an angle grinder. By far the quickest and easiest way I have found to remove grout. Using it very lightly and evenly it takes off a fine layer of the grout cleaning it and therefore it is initially not always necessary to re grout. Pressing down harder with the tool does remove all the grout. The tool is quite easy to control accurately along the grout lines but obviously care must be taken not to cut into the actual tiles.

To clean grout requires a special tool. Just using the steam mop will not clean up the grout.

Its not great for grout, but that's not really its purpose. It does a terrific job cleaning my ceramic tile, couldn't be happier with it. It will get up spills and light surface dirt on grout, but if you're looking for something that deep cleans grout, then this isn't the product for you. Good luck!

Yes it will clean old stains well but you must pretreat the stain first let it soak for about 30 minutes and clean as usual if that doesn't work retreat until you nolonger see the stain it may take several treatments to clean it up depending on how long the stain has been their. Good luck on your success in cleaning this.P.S. I would be lost if not for my scruber it was the best buy I made great also on ceramic tile flooring cleans grout to a new finish .
