Welcome to the world of having a shiny black surface. The best way to clean it is to use a mild detergent and water solution, and a terry cloth rag (yes, on your hands and knees). After scrubbing an area that you can reach from one spot (about 3 feet square), rinse and wring out the rag, and then pick up as much of the water as you can. Then, immediately dry the area using an old bath towel.

Drying the area immediately, as opposed to air drying, prevents water spots and kind of polishes the tile surface.

The problem with a black, shiny surface (whether it's a floor, countertop, or even a car) is that it shows every little flaw, dirt, water spots, whatever that might be on the surface. All you can do is clean it the best you can and deal with the result.

Wiping the tiles with a moist sponge, mop or fabric is all it is mandatory to maintain their luster. the place average staining happens, habitual cleansing could be finished with window glass cleaners. a soft answer of warm water and all-purpose liquid cleaners is superb for cleansing flooring, partitions and countertops. If the grout is grimy, scrubbing with a plastic bristle brush could be required. For heavily grimy surfaces, a greater answer must be used below supervision. The cleansing answer used ought to continually be rinsed faraway from the exterior with water. cleansing soap should not be used to bathe ceramic tiles because it types a action picture dulling the luster and promotes the growth of mildew and bacteria in damp areas which include showers. especially, steer away from making use of acid-based detergents that are harsh and corrosive.
