If your bathroom has started to look unsightly and unkempt, yellowed grout is probably to blame.

According to the expert of the online publication BelNovosti, designer Yulia Tychino, such a trifle significantly spoils the impression of the entire room.

The reason is that the space between tiles is a favorite habitat for fungi and mold.

Under the influence of high humidity and temperature changes, the bathroom turns into a real place for harmful microorganisms, which happily settle here and do not want to “move”.

To get rid of uninvited guests and at the same time update the interior, you will need special paint.

You can buy it at almost any hardware store.

Of course, it cannot be applied to an unprepared surface, so before you start painting the tile joints, clean them with a toothbrush and a bleach solution.

Once this procedure is completed, you can pick up the brush.

By the way, about the brush: you will need a thin one, since only it can provide access to those places that are difficult to reach.

In addition, with the help of such a brush you will be able to refresh the grout without damaging the tile itself.

Once the paint is dry, you can finish decorating your bathroom using decorative stickers.

Such decor, firstly, is water-resistant, and secondly, will help to quickly mask the flaws of the wall covering. By the way, removing the stickers is as easy as sticking them on.
