Anyone have a good product or process to clean grout in shower area. It is a reddish brown from water. We thought they had sealed it but guess not.

Yes. Zep from Home Depot. There are two kinds. Get the one specifically for your circumstance, or get both. Spray it on and walk away. It’s cleaned some of the nastiest showers I’ve ever walked into with amazing results.

Get some toilet bowl cleaner with bleach and put it on the grout lines. Let it sit for a few minutes. Scrub with a small brush then hose off.

ETA Something like this

If it's like my shower, anything with bleach or just a bleach solution will get it looking new-ish........ for a week or so. then downhill again.

Baking soda and white vinegar mixed up with a little Dawn in a spray bottle works well

I keep an old toothbrush in there and clean on Monday mornings during my anxiety attack. Just use whatever soap you have in there.

I mix about a cup of baking soda with about 2 TBSP of blue dawn, then add just enough water to make a thick paste. I scrub my shower with this applied to a stiff bristle brush whenever I notice that orangey brown stuff start to show up on my grout, which is maybe once a month or so? My wife sprays the shower down with scrubbing bubbles once a week but I'm not sure that stuff actually does anything besides smell terrible.
