Three tips for cleaning and maintaining tiles

Three tips for cleaning and maintaining tiles

Method 1: Use a multi-purpose decontamination paste

Tiles are often stained with greasy, rust, scum, etc., especially in tile joints. To keep the porcelain surface clean without damaging the porcelain surface, you can use a multi-purpose decontamination cream for cleaning. At the gap of the tile, you should use a toothbrush and a little decontamination cream to remove the dirt, and then use a brush to brush a waterproofing agent in the gap, so that it can not prevent water seepage and prevent mold growth.

Method 2: Tile the old tile surface

Old tiles need to be refurbished, and it is generally required to shovel all the tiles, which is labor intensive. If you want to add new tiles to the old tiles, the cement mortar is very difficult. At this time, you must use a resin-type stone cement. It is not afraid of greasy stains on the tiles, and it has good bonding strength.

The daily maintenance of light-colored tiles also requires some tips. When cleaning, you can use water and detergent or soap. When you wash with soap, add a little mixture of ammonia and turpentine to make the tiles more smooth. If tea or other daily necessities are attached to the tile, it should be cleaned in time and cleaned with appropriate cleaning products if necessary. If there is a scratch on the brick surface, apply the toothpaste on the scratch and use it for the cloth to repair. From the gap between the brick and the brick, the decontamination paste can be used to remove the dirt from time to time, and then a layer of waterproofing agent can be used in the gap to prevent mold growth.

Method 3: Surface antifouling of vitrified tiles is the key

The only defect of vitrified tiles is that after grinding, the pores are exposed, and oil, dust and the like are easily infiltrated. According to industry insiders, this is an industry-recognized problem, but some manufacturers have solved this problem through new technologies. Many brands of products can be sold as qualified products without anti-fouling treatment. Consumers don't understand the situation, and when they use it, they will be stained. Consumers should ask at the time of purchase that the vitrified bricks that have not been treated with antifouling should be waxed during use, and the general floor wax can be used. Before the paving, in order to avoid damage to the brick surface during construction, the brick surface is covered with a woven bag and other articles that are not easily decolored.

When cleaning and maintaining the vitrified tiles daily, all the stains on the floor tiles should be thoroughly cleaned. If there is glue or stain, wipe them off with a 3M scouring pad. Sprinkle the floor cleaning agent (please use the instructions) on the floor tiles and use a waxing machine to rub the stains on the floor tiles. Pour the water-based wax onto a clean dry mop and apply the wax evenly to the floor tiles. After waxing, let the surface of the floor tile dry, and then dry it before it can be stepped on it. It can also be blown dry by electric fan. It will be completely dry after 8 hours of waxing. If there is heavy object to move, the wax should be completely dried. In order to move, you can keep the floor tiles bright.

After the waxing is repeated several times, the surface of the tile turns yellow and when it is re-waxed, it is treated with a wax removing agent. The specific method is as follows: the wax remover is directly used, it is not necessary to add water, and it is evenly sprinkled on the place where the wax is to be removed, about 10 to 15 minutes. After the wax remover penetrates into the floor tile, the floor tile is splashed with water, and the wax needs to be completely removed, otherwise it is re-applied. The wax will not shine. After removing the wax, please follow the above steps to clean and maintain.

Interior & floor tiles

First, according to the space classification:

Kitchen Tiles, Living Room Tiles, Restaurant Tiles, Balcony Tiles, Bathroom Tiles, Study Tiles, Bedroom Tiles, Wall Tiles, Stairs Tiles

Second, according to the function classification:

Anti-skid tiles, wear-resistant tiles, anti-fouling tiles, anion tiles, electrostatic tiles, high strength tiles, permeable tiles, waterproof tiles, antifreeze tiles

Third, in accordance with the production process points:

There are mainly glazed tiles, unglazed tiles, whole body tiles, polished tiles

Glazed tiles: the body surface to impose zirconium white glaze, glaze protection, transparent glaze glaze medium ceramic tiles;

Unglazed brick: the body surface does not impose various types of glaze, directly naked ceramic tile burning;

Full-body brick: ceramic tile body through the fabric, seepage and other technology coloring glazed brick and unglazed brick

Polished: refers to the surface of the tile after a polished brick process.

Fourth, the main tile category commentary

1 Full cast glaze tile

Full cast glaze tile is a glaze polishing process can be a special formula glaze, which is applied to the last of the antique brick glaze, the current general transparent glaze or transparent convex glaze, applied to the all-thrown Glaze full throw glaze set of polished brick and antique brick advantages in one.


Glazed polished glazed tiles as smooth as bright as polished, at the same time glazed colors such as antique brick-like pattern rich, thick colors or brilliant. Touch by hand, the surface light and soft, smooth does not protrude, appears crystal clear, underglaze stone texture clear and natural, and the upper transparent glaze fusion, like a layer of transparent crystal glaze film covering, making the overall level more three-dimensional clarity.

Full cast glazed tile surface as long as there is about 0.5-1mm glaze layer on it. The polished brick also 2-3mm of fine material; polishing glaze pattern simulation is easy to do, the cost is low. Full cast glaze tile production more environmentally friendly, glazed layer firing faster, lower energy consumption, glaze polishing than the lower energy consumption and higher yields. Glazing after the ultra-flat glaze and other products, is the full cast glaze product upgrades.

2 ceramic stone

In the line known as ceramic glass ceramic composite board, is a layer of 3-5mm glass-ceramic composite ceramic vitrified surface, after the second sintering completely integrated into high-tech products, in simple terms, microcrystalline Stone and other ceramic tile products is the biggest difference between the surface layer of glass-ceramic.


Microcrystalline stone tile, as a polished brick, antique tile after another of the most attractive new category, also known as micro-ceramic stone micro-jade, jade spar, etc.;

3 Rustic porcelain tile

Antique tiles is a kind of glazed ceramic tile. The embryo body is made of porcelain (about 3% of water absorption) or quality (about 8% of water absorption). It is used for building wall and floor.

Polished tiles are also divided into seepage-type polished tiles, micro-brick (superfine powder), multi-tube fabric, ceramic stone, anti-static polishing brick and other categories.

5 Faux Wood Tiles

Wood grain brick is a kind of surface appearance of wood grain decorative patterns of new environmentally friendly building materials. Sub-original edge (when firing is a long strip, without cutting) and hardcover side (brick, post-cut paving) two categories, each with advantages and disadvantages.


Wood grain brick refers to the surface with natural wood texture pattern decorative ceramic tiles, divided into two kinds of glazed tiles and split brick. The former is through the screen printing process or paste ceramic paper flowers to make the product surface grainy pattern, while the latter is the use of two or more different colors were burned in the billet with a vacuum screw extruder spiral mixing After the cut through the mouth of the formation of the wood-like texture of its usual block of products split brick.
