Otherwise, it will very quickly become stained, unpleasant stains and scratches. But there are a lot of funds on the market. And so we made a rating of the best tools for tile. This will help you decide on your favorites when choosing a chemistry home.

How to choose the best tool for tile

In order not to damage the surface of a tile or not to obtain a composition with zero efficiency, it is necessary to pay attention to the following parameters of a quality product:

1. Type of. On sale can be found as powdered options, and liquid (gel). Powders act as an abrasive and can scratch the top layer of tile. To clean the tiles, we recommend using liquid products. They do not exactly scratch the surface and do not damage it.
2. Method of exposure. Depending on the type of changes and the impact that it has. Powder cleaners often have an abrasive effect - they rub off contamination. But it can damage the top layer of tile. Chemical exposure is based on the reaction of composition and pollution.
3. Reaction type. The chemical composition for cleaning tiles can create two types of reactions - acid and alkaline. The first is convenient when you need to clean up some inorganic pollution - for example, rust. If the tile is stained with something organic, then it is better to take "chemistry" on the basis of alkali (soda).
4. Type of coverage. An important parameter - it depends on which product to purchase. If your floor or walls are covered with natural stone tiles containing limestone, it should not be treated with acidic agents.
5. Application Locations. Conditionally divided into kitchen and bathroom. The latter not only clean, but also slightly “update” the surface - they make colors brighter and more beautiful.

In our ranking, we collected only the best products in the form of liquids. They will not damage even the most delicate surface.

How to use tools for tile

Special means for cleaning tile, first of all, strong chemistry. Therefore, it can not be used thoughtlessly and carelessly. Otherwise, you can damage yourself and the cover. Here are some tips that will help not to spoil the tile in the process of cleaning or to facilitate the work itself:

1. When working with any means, we recommend using gloves, a respirator and goggles to avoid injury and unpleasant consequences.
2. Do not use abrasive powders on tiles. Especially glossy. After several such cleansing, the surface will become unusable and begin to collapse. And, accordingly, more dirty and harder to clean.
3. Try not to use acidic products if there is grout in the tile joints. They can destroy the composition, and in the end grout will look disgusting. There is another solution - to treat the seams with epoxy paint or any other composition capable of protecting the composition from destruction by acids.
4. Do not use acidic tile cleaners, if lime is used in any form of your tile - the surface will begin to deteriorate due to the acid.
5. Alkaline chemicals are less effective, but they are gentle to tile. But it is important that the composition does not contain abrasive particles - for example, insoluble soda or sand.
6. Do not forget to check the new tool on the unobtrusive area of ​​the tiled floor. This will help to know exactly how the tile will respond to the composition.

Following these tips, you can easily keep the tile safe and sound. And do not hurt yourself by breathing in pairs or by irritating your hands.
