Please help.  I have white ceramic tiles and no matter what I do they look dirty.  There are lots of small scratches in the surface that are holding dirt.  What can I do about this?   Thanks!! http://www.findanyfloor.com/rss/forum/CareandMaintenance/Tile/PleaseHelpWhitetilesaredirty-1043.xmlen-Us60Sat, 21 Nov 2009 06:23:32 ESTCopyright 2009, FindAnyFloor.com All Right Reservedhttp://www.findanyfloor.com/forum/CareandMaintenance/Tile/PleaseHelpWhitetilesaredirty-1043.xhtmlIt sounds like you have done everything you could. The next step is to get more aggressive with your tile. You may want to hire a pro to do the job but if you insist on doing it yourself I would suggest using a solution of sufamic acid crystals and water. Follow the mixing instructions on the container. Make sure you use safety goggles, rubber gloves, and adequate ventilation. Always do a test spot in a hidden area first to make sure it is not bleaching out your grout joints nor etching your tile surface. ...Wed, 27 May 2009 02:08:38 ESThttp://www.findanyfloor.com/forum/CareandMaintenance/Tile/PleaseHelpWhitetilesaredirty-1043.xhtmlFindAnyFloor.comPlease Help!!

Please do not use sulfuric acid which would be extremely dangerous.

Always wipe off any spills immediately as they happen. Never, ever clean this floor with vinegar, as you will destroy the finish. The easiest and BEST way to clean granite is to buy a daily STONE cleaner. I reccomend you to use Lustro Italiano Cleaner and Polish specifically designed and PH balanced for Marble, Granite, and Dimensional Stone Surfaces. you cna find it here Wed, 27 May 2009 02:08:38 ESThttp://www.findanyfloor.com/forum/CareandMaintenance/Tile/PleaseHelpWhitetilesaredirty-1043.xhtmlFindAnyFloor.comPlease Help!!
