Dirty porcelain tiles.
Hi there,
My cousin moved into a her newly decorated house recently and they have porcelain tiles in the kitchen, they are turning cloudy and don't look so nice any more. What is the best way to clean them and keep them looking good? |

had this to say: Hi there, My cousin moved into a her newly decorated house recently and they have porcelain tiles in the kitchen, they are turning cloudy and don't look so nice any more. What is the best way to clean them and keep them looking good? WD-40 or (in extremis) an angle grinder. :-) -- Frank Erskine |

Wonder if they were grouted using adhesive/grout? This tends to leave a film. What is the best way to clean them and keep them looking good? Use a Scotchbright pad and some warm water with a drop or two of washing up liguid, then polish with a clean dry cloth. Or if kitchen grease causing the problem a proprietary cleaner follow by the same polishing. They are presumably glazed and nothing should be absorbed into them. -- *Marathon runners with bad footwear suffer the agony of defeat* Dave Plowman London SW To e-mail, change noise into sound. |
