Steam Clean The Bathroom - Don't re-tile it!
Whether you're working on your home's seasonal deep clean, or planning to entertain guests, you know the amount of time that goes into cleaning your bathroom. And if you have a tile bathroom, you know how much elbow grease and time go into scrubbing and polishing.
But why spend all that time and back breaking effort if it can be easier? Here are a few tips that can help make your scrub down much less painful, and truly showcase the elegance of your bathroom tile.
- Steam can loosen up even the most stubborn dirt and grime. Try running a hot shower for a few minutes before tackling the tile. Good old elbow grease can get any job done, but there's no reason to work yourself to the bone.
- Ammonia is your comrade in the war on mold, mildew, and bacteria. Adding a little bit to some soap and water will help knock their foul presence out of the picture and keep them out, while giving your tile a nice polished look.
- After a good scrub down, a little bit of wax and a quick buff with a hand towel will have your tile glistening, and will also shield it from future scuffs and mucky buildup.
Tile isn't cheap, and isn't always the easiest to maintain. These tips can help you protect your investment and turn your bathroom into a work of art. Try them out next time you tackle your tile, and see what a difference they make!
