      Sure i also think its fake may be they have another thing for demo and who knows what they try to sell you as they don't have proper card or address of company. If you really need a tiles and grout cleaning you can check the service of http://groutsolutionsperthwa.com.au/. They provide a very nice cleaning service and its guaranteed as i recently used their service and i am happy with the results.

          My previous maids used CIF mixed with detergent and water to scrub the dirt off the grout, worked for living room tiles.

          For toilet tiles, the grout kept getting dirty very fast. Noticed that grout was more worn off than living room tiles, so re-grouted them. Bought ready made grout repair from DIY shop, no need to mix. Took me an afternoon ( with many breaks in between ) to do it. It’s been 2 years, so far so good and still clean and white.

              Can't remember brand. Bought from self fix DIY shop. It's a purple or purplish pink ( gosh i hope i remembered correctly) tube, cut on one end and squeeze out grout. Tell the salesman it's for grout repair. Not a very big tube, I used 3 tubes for my entire toilet floor. Hope this helps.

                    I’m quite taken by one product by JML…


                    The Steam mop or something…
                    Has anyone tried that?
