Thanks for posting the link - this was very helpful, and I will be trying it!

I bet it will also work under the toliet bowl rim with CLR or Lysol toliet bowl cleaner, to get the calicum build-up off.

Here's my question - how do you clean that ridiculous rubberized silicon stuff they use around where the tile meets the tub or shower pan? It doesn't stay white forever and it DRIVES ME INSANE attempting to keep it clean.

Does anybody have a soltion? Have you found the holy grail of how to keep it clean or to clean it when it starts to get dirty?

Please, anybody HELP me with this problem that I bet you have too.

We have the same problem, my contractor gave me the only solution that works.

Replace the caulk.

I have been told by many the problem is moisture gets BEHIND the caulk and causes the color to turn.

I have become a pro at removing and re-caulking since I do it every 18-24 months!

Not nice. Her voice is just fine.

This works well, I've done the same thing using strips of toliet paper or paper towels soaked with bleach. I leave it on over night and in the morning...clean!

A few years ago, I bought a bunch of Clorox Bleach Pens when they were on sale, filled in all the grout in my shower, and let it sit overnight. That was very effective, too.
