How to avoid the discolouration in the grout?

• Change the shampoo: Read the ingredients mentioned in the shampoo bottle. If it contains dyes and colourings mentioned in the bottle, then choose a new shampoo which is natural with no colourings in them. Dye is not good for your body health & family health and it also stains the bathroom.
• Prevent using harsh cleaning chemicals: Harsh chemicals would work well to remove the stains, grout may look cleaner, but they remove the water repellence property of the grout. Bleach is also bad for tile and grout.
• Mix vinegar with water in the ratio of 1:2 and use that solution to clean the grout. A soft brush with little elbow grease would give you excellent result with this solution.
• Use Squeegee: It is preferable to use a squeegee with the suction cup and mount it on your shower, so that it would be handier to use whenever you need it.  You can use it after each shower and this will allow minimum water to be on the grout, tile and doors and dry. Thus there will be very minimum deposit of salt from the water.
