I'm totally embarrassed to show you this, but here it is... a mildew or mold spot on the grout in my shower.
I have had the hardest time trying to get it out. I've used my normal bathroom cleaner and bleach. Nothing has worked so I decided it was time to bring out my secret weapon... the vinegar. Mr.Perfect says I'm obsessed with vinegar. Maybe? I just love that I can feel comfortable using it because it's not toxic and it won't stain my clothes.Here's another picture of the infamous spot that won't go away.
I poured about an inch of white vinegar in a measuring cup with an old tooth brush.
Next, I started to scrub that horrible spot with the vinegar covered toothbrush.
And scrubbed... and scrubbed until....
it started to go away.
And soon I noticed that it was almost gone.
At this point I was yelling down the stairs to Mr.Perfect that the vinegar had removed the spot.
Then I hear Mr.Perfect yell back,
"OK crazy Vinegar Lady!"
"OK crazy Vinegar Lady!"

Thanks! I have way too much tile & GROUT! I love the tile, but hate the grout. My Mr. perfect is a BIG user of strong chemicals, as he is also Mr. Clean! I am sensitive to many harsh chemicals, but don't mind vinegar at all! I will give this a try on my shower walls & kitchen counters. A little household acid might be just the trick.
