    Tiles have mineral deposits so aside from mechanically scraping using paint scraper, grout needs to be cleaned. Vinegar wont do the trick so im trying this industrial grade hydrogen chloride.

    Maglilinis ka din ng C.R. ngayon bro?

    I think it's easier to re-grout na lang?

    Try using a steel brush or something more abrasive?

    This agree with kung malala talaga. Then have the bathroom cleaned regularly so the molds don't build up. In my case i clean the bathroom once a week.

    Agree, you need a good brush to work on those tight spaces. Dremel works best on those grout.

    HCl softened the mineral deposits took me less time to scrape. I also tried lye or sosa-those powder being retailed at aircon shops. It works too, medyo delikado lang parang malulusaw ang water jug sa init. You need to wait for the chemical to react if you dont wanna brush much.

    I always use oxalic plus muriatic acid in cleaning our floor tiles. It's really effective. We always use it in our bathroom.
