Porcelain Tiles have become really popular in the modern world living. These tiles have gained popularity due to its strength, durability and its beautiful texture. Porcelain lasts longer than its other counterparts in tiles. It can withstand more wear tear and foot traffic. The hardness of the tile allows the precise and defined cut of the tile which means the corners and the sides of the tile are grouted closely together to provide it an even feel.

Here are some points which would ensure easy cleaning and maintenance for your porcelain tiles to keep it stain free and shining:

  • The first and the foremost factor to keep your porcelain tile stain free is to always clean or wipe the spills right then. Using a micro fiber to wipe the spill with hot water would prevent the chances of staining the floor.
  • Though porcelain tiles are naturally resistant to staining due to its protective outer coat but some stubborn stains, if left unaddressed can end up staining and lighting the color of the porcelain tile. Diluted mixture of water and vinegar can also be used for cleaning the spills as it would help to get rid of the stain without harming the tile. This method is also recommended for a deep cleaning of the floor, once in a fortnight. Mix ¼ cup of white vinegar with two gallons of warm water and wipe the floor with the help of the micro fiber, sponge or mop. Make sure that you wipe the floor with plain water and then dry the floor with the help of a dry micro fiber or soft cloth.
  • For a long lasting maintenance of the floor ensure that you sweep, vacuum or mop the porcelain floor so that it retains its shine and keep clean.
  • Use of bleach or ammonia on porcelain tiles should be completely avoided as it can make the floor lose its shine, color and luster.
  • Similarly stay away from any oil based wax cleaners and detergents as they can damage the original shine of your flooring.
  • You could also find some professional cleaning solutions from the hardware store to clean your porcelain tiles but make sure you first test the cleaning agent on one side to ensure that it is okay and it doesn’t have any negative effect on the floor.
  • In case of tea and coffee stains, use baking soda by sprinkling it on the affected area and then gently scrubbing and wiping it away with a soft damp micro fiber.
  • Always make sure that the dust and dirt does not gather in corners and in between the floor and these areas should be cleaned properly by using soft brush in a circular motion gently on the damp tile. Avoid scrubbing the dry tiles as this could create scratches on the tile.
  • Using different rugs or carpets which go with the floor color and décor of the space would not only protect your porcelain floor but would also accentuate and highlight the interior of your place.
