Hi, my friends! It's Jeff with HomeRepairTutor, and today I've got one question for you and
one huge cleaning tip. The question is this: "What is the best way to clean grout?" It's
the Holy Grail of Cleaning Questions, right? Or at least it seems to be the case.
Well, one of my awesome fans, Ashley Self, submitted this great cleaning tip, and it
has to do with this little invention she likes to call the Grout Grime Buster 3000. And today,
I'm going to show you how to build this little fellow for less than $5. It's going to make
cleaning, not only your grout but your kitchen and your bathroom and your laundry room—you
name it—so much easier, quicker, and better. So let's get started.
In order to make the Grout Grime Buster 3000, you need a few things. You need some soap
dispensing palm brush refills like this. I bought these at Target for a few bucks. You
need a hex tap bolt like this one. This is 5 inches long. You need a hex nut, a flat
washer, and 2 split washers. It's pretty simply what you need to do. You
need to put one of the split lock washers on the bolt and slide it through like so.
The next step is to place a flat washer on the bolt and the second split lock washer.
Slide your hex nut on there. Get it snug. Use a crescent wrench and then a socket wrench
to ratchet it down. And that's all you need to do to make the Grout Grime Buster 3000.
You can stick it into your drill like so. Lock it in place. And now you've got the perfect
grout or tile cleaning solution. In a previous experiment, I determined that
¼ cup of Oxi Clean added to 2 cups of warm water is the perfect tile and grout cleaning
solution. Pour the solution onto your grout and tile.
Let it sit for 5-10 minutes. Then use the Grout Grime Buster 3000 to remove all the
grime and dirt. Check this out. This is what Ashley' grout
and tiles look like before and after. And this is what my tile and grout look like before
and after I used the cleaning solution and the Grout Grime Buster 3000. Pretty impressive,
right? But this isn't the only place that you can
use this awesome little device. You can use it in your kitchen. You can use it in your
laundry room. You can use it in your shower. You can use it for tile in your shower. You
can use it on your toilet. You can use it in your sink. And many other places. It's
unbelievable! I'm here to tell you that this... I don't know why nobody came up with this
before for such a cheap price. So you should totally check this out. Build
the Grout Grime Buster 3000. And if you have your own cleaning idea, let me know 'cause
maybe I'll make a video out of it, too. Many thanks to Ashley for her awesome idea.
What do you think? Wasn't that one of the best ways to clean grout? I think it was.
And many thanks for Ashley again for her awesome idea. I really appreciate it, Ashley.
