Cleaning Bathroom Tile And Grout
Bathroom tile is economical, durable and easy to clean. You can protect your tile and grout against soap and mineral deposits, mold, mildew and stains. The secret to keeping bathroom tile and grout clean and bright is regular cleaning.
Cleaning The Tile
Start the process by wetting your tiles from the top to the bottom. Spray on a bathroom tub and tile cleaner. Use a scrub pad to clean the surface of the tile in a circular motion. Use a straight motion for tile edges. If the stains remain, use vinegar at full strength. For more intense stains, you may need to use a product designed for hard water, iron, lime or calcium deposits.
Cleaning The Grout
If the grout is white, spray it with diluted bleach and allow it to stand for several minutes. For colored grout, use a mixture of warm water and baking soda. Use an old toothbrush to scrub the grout in a circular motion. If this fails to clean the grout, use a commercial cleaning product. Rinse away the cleaners with water.
Bathrooms are essential part of our everyday life. The appropriate combination of cleansers and tools can maintain the luster of your bathroom tiles.
