Bathroom ceramic grout is susceptible to dirt and stains. How could it not be, the small gaps between the ceramics become a place for soap, mold and various other dirt to gather. This certainly makes the appearance of the bathroom less pleasing to the eye and has the potential to become a nest for germs.
Although grout is important for bonding tiles and preventing water from entering, this porous material absorbs moisture and dirt very easily. As a result, bathroom ceramic grout can quickly change color from pure white to dull yellowish or even black if it is not cared for properly. This condition usually indicates that the mold stains on the ceramic grout have already thickened and must be cleaned immediately.
So, to clean mold stains on bathroom ceramic grout, some people will use special ingredients, such as citrus. However, if it's difficult to get citrus, you can use other ingredients like Instagram user @priya_dwarke did. Through one of the uploaded videos, he admitted that he only used simple ingredients in the kitchen.
Reported by BrilioFood from Instagram @priya_dwarke on Monday (22/7), the kitchen ingredients used were baking soda and vinegar. The mixture of these two ingredients can produce a very effective cleaner for removing stubborn stains, including mold stains on bathroom ceramic grouting.

Furthermore, the application method is quite easy. First, sprinkle baking soda directly onto the dirty ceramic grout. After that, douse it with vinegar until the two ingredients react or foam. So, if it's like that, you should let it sit for 10 minutes.

If it's been 10 minutes, then scrub the ceramic grout using a brush. Do this process until the grout is completely clean again. When you feel it is clean, then rinse with running water. That way, the appearance of the bathroom ceramic grout will be shinier because it is free of mold stains.
