it all depends what sort of tiles they are, because you would expect that the tiles need cleaning as well.

if indeed you are talking about the little four inch quarry tiles, and are trying to clean the discoloured grout, then in the past i have quoted for an acid clean of the whole floor.

Providing the tiles are not polished stone then you can use commercially available grout cleaners - these tend to be acidic (sulfamic acid is also used to clean grout). Another excellant way to clean grout is steam.

Hi

You can use sugar soap which you can buy from a hardware store. It is used to chemically clean surfaces such as walls and the like,

PLEASE wear gloves!
