Instructions

    • 1

      Understand that ceramic tile can become scratched or dulled from abrasive cleaning products. As such, you should only use mild cleaners and a soft cloth or sponge when cleaning the grit from your ceramic tile floors.

    • 2

      Spray a non-abrasive all-purpose cleaner (such as Formula 409) directly onto your ceramic floor.

    • 3

      Wait a few minutes to let the cleaner soak into the gritty film.

    • 4

      Use your sponge or soft cloth to gently wipe away the film.

    • 5

      If the film remains, try using a mildly abrasive cleaner like Bon Ami. Again, wipe the film gently with your sponge or cloth.

    • 6

      Thoroughly rinse the floor with water. This removes any lingering household cleaner that may damage the appearance of the tiles over time.

    • 7

      Wipe the floor clean with a towel.
