Cleaning ceramic & porcelain tile
- Use a vacuum cleaner to remove excess dust.
- Wet the surface with clean water so that the grout is covered and protected from the corrosive action of the detergent (FILA DETERDEK).
- Dilute FILA DETERDEK detergent in water (1L of product: 5L of water). Spread the solution over a small area at a time, wait 2 to 3 minutes, then clean with a mop.
- Use a nylon brush to remove excess grout and dirt from the surface.
- Rinse the surface 2 to 3 times with clean hot water to neutralize the action of the detergent.
- Use FILA CLEANER detergent, then rinse with warm water and wipe.
