I haven't used it for that, and I would say it might be a little hard to control over long periods of time... but probably beats doing it by hand. PORTER-CABLE PC3030 Oscillating Grout Removal BladeAnd there is the tool to do it with.

I would like to correct something. Tiles in bathrooms and showers can have 1/16" spaces, quite narrow. Some companies make drill bits with a 1/16" tip and a 1/8" shank that will fit most power drills.

I have never used it on shower tile and grout. I use it on my shower door and reapply it every 2 to 3 months to keep away water spots on the glass.

Yes. This would drill though ceramic shower tile, but be sure to read some tips on this procedure (in a Google search) before going through with it. I used them to drill into concrete steps and they worked well for that - they are very tough bits.

It does a good job if the grout between the tile is not old and caked on. If you keep up your tile floors a couple of washings with this mop should do the job.

Yes. But don't use it on the ceramic or other type glazed tile around the top edge. It gets the sand / dirt out from between the pebbles and does a great job.

It probably would... the bristles are very stiff and it would be hard to use to clean grout using a drill.

I used it on my shower and grout after having the grout replaced professionally. I mention this because they said the process included some sort of "finish". That being said, my shower stays clean for weeks! I think CRL TPC is as effective on tile (I have glazed tile) as well as glass. Give it a try! (Not sure about the newer tiles, but you can contact the company if you have more questions)

It will remove mildew from both grout & caulk. Caulk color will not be fully restored. You'll need to scrub this product long & hard with a toothbrush or something similar to achieve these results. In my experience, Tilex works better with less scrubbing.

Absolutely, just make sure to use a lower speed on the drill and don't stay in one spot for too long. The bristles are sturdy and can remove grout..great product though, happy cleaning!

If the old grout is crumbly and loose, I would remove it. I did use this product over areas where the grout had receded and was uneven; it has held up well in those areas. Don't try to smooth it with your fingers, use something like an old credit card, hard plastic.

I used it on porcelain a lot. You just have to be easy so you don't break the tile.

Yes, as long as you follow EXACTLY the directions, you can paint the shower. I did not remove any grout, but mine was fine I just painted over it, but followed the cleaning instructions very carefully, Also be sure to follow the directions about time needed to cure/dry before using. I think you will be pleasantly surprised!

We never used it for just grout. We have a ceramic tile floor in our kitchen and bathroom. It is the only steam cleaner that works for us. It is a heavy duty cleaner and does a great job. All I can say is the tile and grout are clean when we're done.

I think you can get thicker pads, but the ones that come with it are more for flat surfaces. They do have enough depth to work on typical shower tile grout. If you have those larger ceramic tiles where the grout has a deep finger run like groove, it's probably not going to work as well, the steam effect however may make it easier for a Swiffer to finish it. I'd recommend finding a deeper, thicker pad and using that. Plus I've recently reviewed some nice steamers with the power to ideally go after grout cleaning.

I never used it on grout or shower tile. However i think it would work great on the tile. We use this product for my dads headstone which is granite and it works amazing. Hence the name :)

The grout is white after set. Can be dyed with any water based color. Yes It is for ceramic tile, and waterproof.

In my opinion, this unit is too heavy to remove tile without damaging the underlayment. I would suggest the Bosch Bulldog as an alternate. It's lighter, easier to control. The Bosch HS1465 tile chisel and a 3/4" wide chisel should do fine removing tile.
