Last week, I tiled a kitchen floor, and everything went wonderfully.
Soon
after grouting, I removed the grout from the tile, and the tile looks
fabulous. But, the grout itself has a white haze/film on top of it. I've
been spraying it down a few times each day (as per the grout's
instructions), and it seems to be getting worse - so I imagine that it
might
be "water-spots".

Any tips on removing this before I seal the grout? I've been thinking
of
some dilute viengar in purified water, but wanted to see what others
recommend.

What you have is efflorescence. It is the soluble salts coming to the
surface of the grout. You need to let the grout cure and then clean with a
vinagar and water solution. If that doesn't work you can getsufamic acid at
one of the box stores.
