Some people believe that there is no need to reinvent the wheel when it comes to whitening the joints between tiles, because there are now special products to solve the problem.

However, you always want to save money by refusing an unnecessary purchase.

How can I restore the white color to the seams between the tiles?

Bleach

The oxygen option copes best with the task. We mix the bleach with ordinary water in equal proportions and distribute it evenly on the surface of the seam.

After 60 minutes, the seams must be cleaned and wiped.

Vinegar and lemon juice

You will need to pour an incomplete glass of water, a spoonful of vinegar and lemon juice into the mixing container. After that, apply the mixture to the seams.

You should wait about 15 minutes.

Next, wipe the seams with a damp cloth.

For very dirty seams

You will need to combine mustard powder, soda, toothpaste and lemon juice so that we have a mixture that is easy to apply. If the seams look very dirty, then to be on the safe side, you can add a little ammonia.

Apply the composition to the seams for 10 minutes and then rinse.
