Initial cleaning of a new floor in wood-effect tile<\/strong><\/h3>\n

The first thing to do is make sure that the floor is really clean, making sure to remove that almost invisible film that inevitably forms after the installation of this kind of tile. It is therefore indispensable to use an acid cleaner<\/strong> like DETERDEK<\/a> <\/strong>for the initial cleaning<\/strong>, the only product that eliminates all kinds of inorganic installation residue <\/strong>such as dust, sheet rock, etc. and guarantees  correct complete post-installation cleaning.<\/p>\n

How to use it.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Wet the surface and grout joints with water, then use DETERDEK<\/strong> diluted 1:5 (1 QT of product in 5 QT of water). Apply the solution to sections of a few square feet at a time. Let sit a few minutes, then rub vigorously with an abrasive pad or large brush. Remove the residue with a cloth or wet vac and rinse with plenty of water. Should any stubborn dirt remain, repeat the application with a more concentrated solution.<\/p>\n

How to clean a floor in wood-effect porcelain tiles: everyday maintenance<\/strong><\/h3>\n

For daily cleaning of the floor, it is important to use a neutral <\/strong>cleaner <\/b>that does not leave any residue on the surface. For this reason, we recommend using CLEAN<\/strong>ALL,  a delicate yet effective product ideal for regular maintenance of floors in wood-effect porcelain tile.<\/strong> Normal cleaners, on the other hand,  often contain shine additives that deposit on the floor and over time form unsightly streaks and marks or, even worse, make the surface slightly sticky, therefore easily attracting dirt.<\/p>\n

How to use it<\/strong><\/p>\n

Dilute 1:200 (one capful of CLEAN<\/strong>ALL per gallon of water) for a no-rinse application. Can be used directly in the water tank of a floor cleaning machine when diluted 1:200. CLEAN<\/strong>ALL leaves no residue, does not require rinsing and can be used on any kind of surface.<\/p>\n
