Found a crazy trick for cleaning gross shower grout without scrubbing

I kept putting off cleaning my bathroom grout because it's in this tiny corner shower with zero ventilation and it gets nasty fast. Tried bleach sprays, those scrub brushes that attach to a drill, even some expensive steam cleaner rental from the store down the street. Nothing really got the dark spots out without taking skin off my knuckles. Then my neighbor who's a house painter told me to mix baking soda with hydrogen peroxide into a paste and let it sit for 15 minutes covered with plastic wrap. After I rinsed it off the grout looked almost new, no scrubbing needed at all. I was shocked it actually worked that easy after wasting like $40 on other stuff. Anyone else got a random household hack that saved them from a chore?

Oh man, that paint-on paste trick is legit. I used a similar mix with blue Dawn dish soap and it saved my grout too.

The Dawn dish soap probably helped cut through soap scum even better.

Dude I was literally in the same boat with my mildew-y shower corner and spent way too much on that drill brush setup. Glad you found something that actually works without wrecking your hands.
