Might want to try this ...Good Luck !
1. Before cleaning, wipe away any excess wet buildup with a white terry-cloth towel or paper towels. If your grout is crumbling, consider replacing it. (See How to Replace Cracked Tile Grout in a Tub or Shower.)
2. While cleaning (steps 3 through 6), be sure to wear rubber or latex gloves and safety goggles, and throw open the windows to avoid exposure to the harsh chemical fumes of bleach-containing solutions.
3. Spray on a commercial grout cleaner or a heavy-duty all-purpose cleaning solution with bleach. Wait for several minutes.
4. Scrub the grout with a stiff scrub brush or a grout brush, then rinse thoroughly.
5. Blast mold, mildew or stubborn stains with a bleach-containing cleanser, or make your own using 1/4 cup (2 fl oz/60 ml) chlorine bleach and 1 qt. (32 fl oz/1 l) warm water. Let the disinfectant sit at least 10 minutes to thoroughly kill the mold and mildew.
6. Scrub the grout with a stiff brush or a grout brush, rinse, then dry with a white towel or paper towels.
7. Now that the grout's sparkling clean, keep it that way. Apply one to three coats of commercial grout sealer with a small brush or paintbrush. (Commercial grout cleaner, grout brushes and grout sealer are available at home supply centers and janitorial supply stores.)
8. Reapply annually to make certain the only thing scary in your home is the Halloween decor.
Overall Tips:
Regular cleanings with a bleach-based cleanser keep mold, mildew and stains in check.
Make sure you seal the grout after cleaning.
Overall Warnings:
Never mix bleach with an ammonia-based product such as glass cleaner

If it's white grout, I would spray with Clorox All-purpose Bleach and let it sit for a while and then scrub with a nice scrub brush. You might have to repeat the process depending on how dirty the grout is. Some grout requires a professional person to come in and clean it and then seal it so it would get dirty again. Good luck!

Clorox bleach pen, then I wax the tile and the grout with a car wax - if you have white tile, use white wax.

There are many cleaning products on the market which you can use, but the only way to get into the cracks is with a toothbrush or a small wire brush or fibre brush

hi--use a good metal brush cleaner -- the same size as a tooth brush -- they sell them at "one dollar store--made in china" I am sure it will work.
