grout update

this photo sums this project up best. 
before     &      after
it took hours (and hours!) but my main living space (about 500 sq ft) now has newly painted grout! 

it took some backbreaking scrubbing, a toothbrush, a small paintbrush and a lot of paper towels along with this awesome stuff: 
polyblend's grout renew in oyster gray
but i am absolutely IN LOVE!
i didn't realize how much light the floors soaked up until i gave them nice, light grey grout. they are beautiful and make the room much brighter! seriously, even in the dark, they sort of light the floor.

my grout beforehand would not look clean no matter what i sued or how heard i scrubbed (even with a metal grill cleaner!) 

i'll have to get some better before & after shots but i just can't get over how clean and uniform the floor looks now!
