Surface cleaning

Stained tiles should be removed in time. According to the nature of the stain, choose a suitable cleaner to remove it.

Daily cleaning can use household detergent, soap, etc. If strong dyeing solution such as ink is spilled on the brick surface, it should be scrubbed immediately. Adding a little ammonia water or an equal amount of mixture of linseed oil and turpentine to soap can make tiles more shiny and decontamination stronger.

Gap treatment

After tiling and daily cleaning, a waterproof agent can be applied to the cracks with a brush, which can play a waterproof and mildew-proof role. Cracks that are often easily contaminated with stains can be smeared on the joints of tiles with candles to prevent excessive adhesion of stains in advance.

Wear repair

The surface of ceramic tile is often uneven because of friction, stains and other problems. For example, there are several slight scratches on the surface of ceramic tiles, which can be coated with toothpaste and wiped with a soft dry cloth to repair. Waxing floor tiles (polished tiles) regularly can play a lasting protection role, and the interval time is 2 ~ 3 months, which can effectively restore the surface luster of tiles and prolong the service life of tiles. When waxing the floor tiles, before wax surface treatment, thoroughly clean the stains and evenly coat the wax on the floor tiles. Usually wait for it to dry within 8 hours after waxing. It is not advisable to trample on the surface to avoid leaving traces. If the edge or middle of the tile is slightly damaged, you can paste a small part with white latex.

Stubborn stains can be treated with special cleaners. For example, for the ceramic tiles that are easy to rust behind water pipes, rust inhibitors and professional rust removers can be used, and local polishing, film covering, grease coating, antirust oil and other methods can also be used to prevent rust and rust.
