    grout cleaner

    Can anyone recommend a really good white grout cleaner. The customer asked me to re grout but i've advised giving it a clean with a good grout cleaner first. I reckon the grout has been there about 20-30years, its in a treatment room so its never been wet. Any help would be great! :thumbsup:
