Homemade Grout Mold Stain Remover:
- Hydrogen Peroxide (Regular 3%)
- Baking Soda
Directions:
- There are a few methods for creating the paste. First, add some baking soda into a bowl. Lightly spray peroxide onto the baking soda until a thick paste is formed. Almost like toothpaste (first picture in blog post shows texture).
- Apply the paste to the grout area needing attention, and let it sit a 5-10 minutes (or as long as you would like).
- With a tooth brush or small cleaning brush, scrub vigorously in small circular motions.
- Rinse

Also, if you are worried about residue, just spray some rubbing alcohol on the solution after rinsing or use hot soap and water. There shouldn't be any issue with residue!
With the thick consistency, applying to grout is easy. I just rub it on like shown above!

Was wondering about using this on a color grout. I have dark brown.

I have used it on gray grout, and it was fine. It does require more rinsing to get rid of the baking soda. I will follow up with some soap and water when I do our darker grout. You can test a small area first to see how it does.
