The stains have been on the tiles for some weeks.

To remove grease you will need some sort of solvent not a degreaser. If you are careful petrol that you use in your car will get grease off tiles and is very cheap but I do stress be careful......no smoking or fires nearby.

If your tile is a floor tile of ceramic then all you need is a foaming oven cleaner such as Easy-Off. Spray a liberal amount on the surface and let it set a few minutes before washing it clean with hot water. If the buildup is heavy then you may have to do this several times.
If your tile is a vinyl then you cannot let the foam cleaner set more than a minutes or so or the cleaner may attack the vinyl and discolour it. Again, you may have to do this a few times if the build up of grease is excessive.
Be sure to wear eye goggles and rubber gloves when using strong detergents and always extra wash surfaces cleaned afterwards.

I swear by Greased Lightning. It is a degreaser but with that and a good scrub brush you should get some results. Let it sit on the stains so it can work its way in.
You can also go to your local home improvement store and get some type of acid cleaner but I would be very careful if you use that.

"Simple Green" it's in the automotive section in many stores. I buy it by the gallon. It comes concentrated so you can dilute it as you want/need to. I usually just spray it on and leave it for an half an hour and come back to it. A nylon scrubbie accompanying this task should be all you need. If it's really bad, the use of a pressure washer can help. Sometimes they make the splatter into a "film" and that's nasty too. I swear by the stuff.

You could try some of Mr. Clean's magic white cleaner. Dawn dish soap-cuts thru grease. Or you could try windex with vinegar. Those are a few things I could think of to try. Or, if you want the best stuff-call a place like Home Depot, and ask one of their staff in the tile dept. Take care.

Buy a box of tri sodium phosphate (TSP), it's available at hardware stores.
Make a strong mixture (read how to, on the box) and scrub the stains with a stiff bristle brush. Rinse well.

put washing up liquid into a bucket of hot boiling water. get a brush, like a sweeping brush or preferably a brush with metal bristles. dip the brush into the water a scrub like you`ve never scrubbed before. the washing up liquid in the water should shift the greasy stain.
good luck
