  Clean your grout by slowly poring a thin layer of oxygen bleach solution until you cover the entire area that you wish to change color. It will remove the dirt and grime from the grout. Refer to the product's label for the minimum cure time required.

  Purchase a 25-ounce bottle of grout additive from a home improvement store. Look for features that help the grout become stronger and more stain resistant. Dip a thin paint brush into the bottle and carefully brush the gray grout area until it is completely covered.
