We recently moved into our house, in which the den has red brick flooring. It appears as though the previous owners put a sealant of some sort on the floor before cleaning the grout & it looks horrible!
I'm absolutely clueless what to do.
Is perhaps painting the floor a possibility??

On a different forum, I posted this same question & was advised to cover it with a large area rug or put carpeting over it...
I'd rather fix it opposed to covering it up, as I like the flooring, just not the color & especially the stained grout.
As for carpeting, that simply isn't an option at this point. Below is a picture. Thanks in advance for any helpful info
