Best grout cleaner?

Just got a tiled shower and kind of wish I hadn't - the grout never looks good and I clean every week with diluted bleach! Help please!
 
I have been known to scrub my grout with a whole magic potion of things and even using gloves and a toothbrush to get it looking good again! We have a company here in the UK called Cillit Bang that do a really good grout spray called power cleaner and I have used that on a toothbrush with baking soda! Have a look into that if you can get it, but the baking soda is a good addition to making things shining bright even if used with another spray cleaner. I realise the toothbrush is time consuming and a little excessive even but hey it works :confused3

Over the years I have tried so many things that don't work. Straight bleach on a toothbrush is what I always end using that actually gets rid of mold and mildew.
 
I use Kaboom spray. I love it because it clings long enough to do the cleaning for me, even on walls. I don't have to scrub.
 


It sounds like the grout was never sealed.....Get it as clean as you can go to HD buy Tile Labs sealer comes in container with or a brush or without -- would suggest the one without as you will go through at least a few of the ones with the brush... get your self some headphones and stool to sit on and paint the lines for hours -- it has to sit on top and absorb in and will take more than one coat.... Had my bathroom done 15 years ago including a stall shower spent a few days sealing all the grout (literally) and I have never ever had any mold on any grout... floor grout... mop it and it looks like new.... While I say get it as clean as you can you really should replace the grout than seal it you should have no future issues... all can be done easily but with a lot of frustration from being bored and a lot of time.... but I a lot less time than scrubbing every week for years...
