My kitchen counter top has 4" ceramic tiles with 1/4" grout lines.

Over the years, and in spite of regular cleaning, grease and dirt has
accumulated in these slightly recessed grout lines and made them
unsightly unsightly. Mechanically, the grout is in good shape (no
crumbling).
While I am at it I would also like to recondition the 14" floor tile
grout lines. Would they require a different cleaning procedure?

What is the easiest way to restore the grout to like-new condition?

Two words: Pressure Washer.

No, I haven't tried it and I don't know that it will work. It's probably
just thinking outside the box (which is very similar to coloring outside the
lines), but if all else fails...



I thought about that but didn't want to make a mess. Sure would have
been easier.
