How Do You Get Grout Stains Off Porcelain Tiles?

I have just laid some white porcelain tiles from b&q in my kitchen. There were no instructions on the packet about sealing before/after grouting. Last night i started to grout them with brown porcelain grout and it has completely ruined the tiles as there are stains all over them! I was and am very upset by this. Does anyone know of the grout stains can be removed or do i have to retile?

    I assume the tile is glazed. If so, I would try a mild acid like vinegar or LimeAway. I would think that would loosen the grout so it can be removed.
    You might also try a product like the one below:http://www.aldonchem.com/pr-grout-residu…
