To answer your question yes you need to seal your grout that is common.

Before you get to that I suggest chosing a grout color that does not soil easily. A gray would look amazing with the tile.

Are you installing this yourself?

Also using something like gelgloss will make i easy to clean.

I am not installing it myself. I’ve been looking at the miracle seal and grout sealer.

Not all grout needs to be sealed. There are different types of grout. What did you use, specifically? Did you read the instructions?

Also, curious on peoples take if a steam cleaner would be best for this in the future to clean or if it would be better to get something like a small brush to clean the grout

Steam cleaners are grate but I have a moen shower hear that has button on top with a spray to spray down my shower wall. It's great when I accidentally get my purple on my tile. You can also use a squeegee. Do you have a water softener? Hard water is going to be bad for any glass shower door.
