Tools & Technique :
Often found in bathrooms, change rooms and around pools, ceramic tiles are glazed and non-absorbent. Any staining is on the surface and can be removed by the appropriate cleaner. Avoid abrasive cleaners that can scratch the glaze. Also use highly acid cleaners sparingly and limit contact time.
Grouting between ceramic tiles is more difficult to maintain. Some grouting is treated with a clear silicone seal, which greatly reduces its ability to absorb stains. Untreated grouting needs to be cleaned often to prevent dirt build-up and discoloration. Often you will need a stronger cleaner and a grout brush for more thorough cleaning.
