Post by: blacksheep on March 21, 2006, 11:27:30 am

ceramic floor tiles in toilets are the pits , have been neglated for years by the look of them .I would normally use brillo degreaser and machine scrub, the degreaser is not going to get it clean and no room for machine, area to small, i was thinking of using stripper , any thoughts or help would be apperached regards blacksheep

Hi blacksheep!

Are they glazed or unglazed? you mustn't use any abrasives on glazed ceramic tiles, your best bet is to buy a good ceramic floor restorer :)

I have found a good acid cleaner works (somthing phospheric based)
