Si y cuando se despunta la cerámica queda uno pagando
I worked for a huge commercial tile company 30 years ago.We did malls, hospitals, buildings, etc. They bought these huge grout washing machines from Germany. These things had a big wash tub on small casters, that had a circular sponge that was about 18" wide and 4' in diameter. the machine kind of worked like an old timey washing machine with several sets of rollers the 3 HP motor pushed the sponge thru. You could clean tile faster than 4 experienced grouters could grout. We could grout several thousand feet of tile in one day. If you knew how to operate the machine, you did not have to go back to clean any grout haze, other than a spot here or there. Amazing machine..
Expensive machine lol
German Technologie 👌
3hp? omfg more than my f*cking car (almost tbh :()

We did this in a hall bath,it was easy and came out nice,you can also change the color of the grout this way .
How to change the color this way??
I love to fix thing in the house and I am really glad to found these video ..thanks 👍🏻

I cleaned an enormous area of grout in my home one month ago with Lysol toilet bowl cleaner and I am so happy with the result. Applied blue Lysol toilet bowl cleaner to the grout lines, let sit 15 minutes, scrub grout with a wire grout brush, wipe away toilet bowl cleaner with a towel. It took me one week, four hours per day to do a kitchen, bathroom, laundry room and hall. I divided the job into 4 hour sessions because the fumes from the product can be strong and irritating. Twenty year old grout looks almost new!
I would be worried that the harsh chemicals would affect the finish on the tiles??
Керхером под напором воды,всё отлтчно моется.Зачем нюхать химию?
@@johnbannister501 Many tiles are porcelain which toilet are. Natural or non man made tiles such as slate may etch or colour change, you could test a small area first. Other cleaning options are vinegar or steam cleaning. A lot depends on how bad or deep the damage or black mold has gone into the grout. Sometimes the neglect has gone to far and replacement is the only option.
grind out old grout. add new grout . done
Was the tb cleaner with or without bleach formula?
Very informative. Thanks
Muy buena tecnica gracias por compartir.desde Mi Peru.🇵🇪
Thank you for sharing how to help us save time in housework. Wishing you more useful videos.
I've used this grout removal and regrouting technique to refresh all the old dirty grout between all my floor tiles and wall tiles in kitchen, laundry and bathrooms, bit-by-bit, over many years. A big and successful project. I found it generates a lot of dust, simultaneous vacuum cleaning is essential. The multitool also chews through a lot of these expensive carbide grout removal blades. But the really pleasing end result justifies the expense and effort.
I used Davco Rejuvenation Grout (Antique Lace colour). It comes premixed in small pails, a bit expensive, but lends itself to working in small areas when I had small amounts of free time available.
This grout is designed to stick to existing grout which means that you only have to remove a small depth of old dirty grout crust, doesn't have to be removed all the way down to the floor substrate. I used a small tiling sponge in alternating half-circular motions to flush the regrout lines with the surface of the tiles, and a microfibre cloth to polish off the fresh haze left over on the tiles after final sponge clean - don't wait too long because the dried haze is hard to remove, requires real sweaty effort.
If/when it dries out slightly and gets a bit stiff in the pail, I just added some water and used a scraper to stab/mix the water in to make it nice and buttery again, like thick yoghurt. No need to throw any away, just spray surface of pail contents with water, keep pail closed and store inside a plastic bag in a cool place.
U know your stuff!!
I would somehow would like to save this post but I don’t know how to.
Very good information.
@@connieeddy178 one way to save this post is to select what you want to keep with a mouse, then copy and paste it into a word document.
You know your stuff. If you're still in the game, why not make You Tube videos of your expertise? A couple of GoPros or a phone, a small microphone and a young apprentice to help you out. You'd get the paid job done, and make another revenue stream at the same time from You Tube advertising and subscribers. I'd subscribe to you.
@@connieeddy178 You can save it in a way, by taking a screenshot of it, then saving it to your photos with a descriptive note and tag so you can easily search for it in the future.
Each device is different, so if you don't know how to do a screenshot with your device, just search for it on the internet/CZcams.
I usually save these types of great diy tips (that are screenshots), into a folder on my drive or cloud.
Amazing work
Me encantó muchas gracias, bendiciones.
How amazing!!!!!!!!! Ingenious, hahahaha 👍👍👍👍👍.

Lindo o seu trabalho parabéns
Great video
So the house I currently owe was renovated by the previous owner. He did all kinds of upgrades and fixed things and did them very well but the o e thing he did do that I realize was pure genius was using coloured grout in the bathroom and kitchen. At first I thought it was odd but now realize how smart. Easy to clean and if it was white grout would drive me nuts. My buddy pointed that out after he got his kitchen done and had white grout installed. Said he should have gone with dark grey like mine. Cool video though.
@@StonemanRocks that is awesome. They shouldn’t even make it a choice. Just go with the best and it sounds like the epoxy is. Next grout job I do will be that. I wish the guy did my stand up shower with coloured grout. Thanks man
@@StonemanRocks true in short run about being expensive but from what I have read in long run makes way more sense and like my dad used to say cheap becomes expensive in the long run. But thanks for the tip!
@@StonemanRocks I’d pay the difference if it meant my grout looked clean and uniform. It’s o ly $75 extra dollars and amortized over 25 years is $3.00 a year which would be a huge savings Vs the cost of cleaners and time etc. but I hear what you are saying. Thanks for the info. Take care.
This is wonderful. Thankyou Sandra asGrace
If you have installed tile for 30 years and never seen this then you need a profession. This is something you would learn the first couple weeks.
Be Kind. Your comments were unnecessary.
I agree but man u did an edit and still said... "you need a profession" lol new profession? U mean hahah
Your the type of old dogs that can't be taught new tricks
I live in 3rd world country and all people here apply "fragüe" with a "llana" (I dont even know how those words are sain english)
@@Mipetz38 agree on this, In our countries that’s how it does and those tiles remain in good shape for decades
Perfektní nápad...

Eso.me.parece normal,nuestro piso tiene feas las juntas y yo había pensado hacer lo mismo.me place saber q si se puede hacer,me parece muy buena la técnica
You're going go be doing that all the time with that light of a grout. Interesting application.
WOW, Thank You, Iam getting ready to do some tile work, and your video has been SOOOO helpful. Thanks from Puerto Rico.
I used a cement sheet cutter to remove my grout it's a beast and zero dust. I also use a grouting float and push the grout into the joins
His videos are ALL Genius!!!
Maybe, If you're a fucking idiot.
Eu já fiz isso sem saber e ficou ótimo 😃
Olá! Você fez , usou que produto, esse branco é o que?
Eu gostei da ideia!

Wow amazing beautiful idea 👌✌️ thanks my friend 👍👍👍👍
Bravo!👍
I haven't even started to watch this yet but man I wish I would have seen this a few years ago whenever I bought my place. I used every cleaning solution I could find, a toothbrush, a wire brush and every other thing I could think of. It's been 8 years and my floors look 90% better but I have recently decided that I am going to paint/stain the grout gray to match my marbled tile a little better. I already tried a swatch and it looks great
I hope you will visit my channel
paint wont stay its like painting sand
Liquid Comet w/bleach. Cover the grout with the Comet, let set for an hour then wash away and seal the grout. Looks like new!
@@AwosAtis interesting
@@AwosAtis actually, just get some regular gel type toilet cleaner with bleach. Squirter it all along the grout lines and let it sit for about 15 minutes. Scrub it off with a brush, you're good.
A DICA é ótima ! 👍Porém, eu vou trocar para rejunte na cor cinza.

Hallo lieber Sportsfreund, in 1961 bin ich mit 14 Jahren in die Fliesen,-Platten-und Mosaikleger Lehre gekommen. Da wurden die Fußböden schon mit der Technik des Gummischiebers ausgeführt 🤪
Que legal é mais rápido né obrigado por nos enssinar
If you don’t have a multitool ‘Oscillating multitool’ you’ll love it for all kinds of different projects.
Aqui no Brasil, já existe essa técnica a mais de 30 anos...por tanto não é novidade!
Я считаю что он плохо и неправильно наносит затирку. Её нужно втииать внутрь,что б не было воздуха.
И вообще лучше швы зачистить шуруповёртом с щеткой и средством для мытья посуды
Thank you for sharing.my floor tiles are 20 years now.Even I mop everyday w/ floor solution, Still look dirty in between tiles.
Floor cleaning solution is usually the cause of grout turning dark
The reason why new clean grout get dirty over time is because wet sloppy mopping of the floor causes fine dirt particles to settle and embed into down into grout lines, making them grimy and uncleanable over time.
Once you have finished grouting or regrouting, only use a damp finger-type damp mop with a spinning bucket to clean the floor, so no dirt-contaminated water slops into the grout grooves.
I've been cleaning my regrouted tile floor with a damp finger mop for a few years now, grout line still look great!
I guess it has also helped that I sealed the fresh dry regrout lines with a waterproofing sealer recommended by the regrout manufacturer.
Also use a dry mop as you go along to lift the dirty water off the grout before it dries in the grooves. Change floor mopping water regularly

Use an acid cleanse to get rid of the smudge.
I am vacuuming the floor before steam mopping and monthly scrub the grouts with a dish brush and degreaser. I found this the easiest way to keep them clean.
I've done this so many times for customers. Having relatively no dust is great. I also use an angle grinder with two diamond blades and a dust extractor .On large area I would use a Rubi long handled grouting squeegee. A day or so after the grout has cured I would seal the grout with Lithofin sealer. It is great stuff. I even use it on showers and kitchens. All grouts are cement based so sealing has to be done. A mop is a dangers tool.

Everytime I mess around the brittle tile edges with metal hand tools ( trying to remove excess thinset ) , I eventually pop and chip the porcelain on the edge. Removing grout with a carbide blade is not as easy as it looks . This job close up may not be pretty I'm guessing.
@@StonemanRocks Epoxy grout is another world.
What blade grinder did you use?
è semplicemente perfetto
انه حقآ رائع
شو الجديد بالموضوع.. في العراق نستعمل هذه الطريقه من عشرات السنين واصلا هذا العمل الصحيح.... تحياتي ليك.. رائع
Very worked.
Parece boa técnica
EXCELENTE.
Yup..good job..I do same
No ładnie ładnie...👍 Ale co w tym niesamowitego czy nowego to nie wiem... Szkoda że nie pokazał też jak sobie radzi z płatkami w połysku i z 1mm fugą 😜
süper siniz bravo emegine sağlık kardeşim
Das Video ist sehr hilfreich, das einzige was man nicht nochmals machen sollte und zwar auf dem Boden ein so hellen Farbton auswählen. Beim Laufen und wischen schmiert man den Schmutz wieder in die Fugen,somit entstehen wieder Schattierungen in den Fugen.Man nimmt für den Boden eine dunkle Fuge ,z.B. Zementgrau
Perfeito 👏👏👏👍

Por favor que tipo de disco eu compro pra fazer a remoção do rejunte? Obrigado
No Brasil são tão pertos que nem parece o rejunte, trabalho bem feito . Mas tem casas que não .
Makes sense! Wow
영상 잘 봤습니다!! 또 올게요! 구독 했어요
Prático demais. E fica perfeito.
Pratico ???????
A ja robię od 20 lat i nie widziałem profeski ! No i oczywiście takich narzędzi 🥴
Türkiyede böyle yapıyorlar.
Класс 👍, но швы надо делать тёмные,белые через полгода уже будут грязные, поэтому напольная плитка всегда должна быть темного цвета. 🇰🇿
احسنت عمل رائع 👍👍👍
Can you tell us what specific tools you used for this project and perhaps provide links if you have them? I'm particularly interested in the tool bit you used in the first step to remove the old mortar
It's a multi tool ,if you are doing lots of this work ,buy a quality one ,from either AEG,Milwaukee, makita,Dewalt or the like.
Cheap ones will not stand up to this kind of work.
The best ones are brushless

The blades are available at tile and larger hardware suppliers, also Harbor Freight tool supply. Oscillating grout blade.
Do they cone in different sizes. My bathroom is small.
احسن تشرح المواد اللي بتستعملها
Donde puedo comprar esa herramienta?
Nice
Onde compra essa maquininha de rejunte
in high traffic areas, why not use epoxy grout? it never gets dirty
Благодарю Вас.
Question, if you seal the grout every year or so with a sealer, wont that keep it from getting discolored? In conjunction with regular floor cleaning of course
what tool did he use to remove the grout?
I've seen this technique and done it, now days though I use a 4" diamond blade on a cordless angle grinder...much quicker than the oscillating tool and you can use the same blade for many grout removal jobs. I would not recommend the grinder unless you have a steady hand and eye protection and a dust mask/vacuum is a must.
Just paint the floor and wipe the excess off the tiles. No need to grind the grout lines at all. 15 minutes total job. Easy! This is dumb!
@@opentrunkwho would want their tile painted?
@@josephsperzel1492 Only a very thin film of paint remains on the tiles while the grout is fully covered. I'll grant you that the time-consuming labor-intensive method of grinding all the grout lines is probably going to result in a somewhat better product, but it's not worth the aggravation or cost. Note that my method works best with non-glossy tiles, like stone or rough ceramic, where the paint will not rub off easily over time. We just did a whole apartment, start to finish, in about 2 hours. People who see it have no idea it was painted, they think we cleaned it.
tudo e valido
Much easier and cleaner way is to use a piping bag along the joints filling as you go along. After a while, simply use a wide putty filler/knife to clean the now filled joints. Then simply use a clean damp cloth to finish. The way the guy in the video did it is labour intensive and uses so many different tools when all you need really are two.
You’re clearly not in the flooring industry lol
Yeah try a piping bag on a 2000sf floor
Yeah I did that piping bag on my other house and let me tell you it sucked! My hands hurt so bad!
This house I just put so much down and then used a float and then I used sponges and a mop. Much easier and faster and it looked just as great as my other house
Kkkkkkkkkkkk também coitado no final do dia haja coluna mais a dica e top amei 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Wow! 30 years never seen this wow !!!!! Amazing!!!!!! I been cooking for 50 year and did not know that the fry pan has only one handle !!!!so donot feel lonely !!!!!!🫢🤫🔴wow 30 years 🤫
Otimo video.
Que aparelho é esse que tirou o rejunte?
Deve ser uma esmerilhadeira angular pequena
Es una osciladora multipropósito o multiherramienta.
Good
Я с напарником делал 3500 м2 так. Дом 36 квартир. Тоже сначала резали балгаркой швы и затираем швы растиранием шваброй. Очень быстро выходит.
Привет, а что за аппарат на видео?
Ola amigo, Como chama essa maquina de tirar rejunte?
Tambien sale con la vaporeta...ke echa vapor de agua...y lavandina.....un saludo.
the easiest way to remove grout is with a cordless grinder with a thin metal cutting blade ! It is a very dusty process so is not suitable for every type of job .
The grout shown in this example is far too wet . Being a cement product grout needs to mixed with the minimum of water and should be tooled into the joints . A washboard is the best way to wash off excess grout . The 45^ wipe is the most even way to wash off .
5" skill with diamond blade and table guide ... 1 x 3 by 6 foot stood on by guy w vac and pumpable squirt bottle ... these guys are union though
Какой смысл с этой шваброй размазывать всю плитку если в конечном результате один хрен на коленках сидеть и отчищать все?
Странно быстро затворилась, да ещё и жидковатая, усадку даёт, проходить повторно. Так же быстро потемнеет.
Совершенно в точку!)))
