2-White vinegar
Another solution that doesn’t require scrubbing the tiles to make them shine is to mix white vinegar with water to remove the impurity.

Although white vinegar can restore the shine of tiles and prevent limescale and mold from settling on them, it should be avoided. It could tarnish your tiles.
If you find it necessary to rub your joints, you don’t even have to burn yourself. Just use a regular, used toothbrush to better penetrate the white vinegar. You’ll find that these simple tile cleaning tricks require at most firm scrubbing and not too vigorous.
