Ceramic tiles are requisite in our daily life. There are so many different ceramic tile designs. There are series of funny printed ceramic tiles, such as funny cup, funny mugs. They all can be considered to gifts. Here’s a question we received just the other day:
“Hi, I have shiny black porcelain tiles in the kitchen which we have put a tile sealer on. We have the same porcelain tiles in our toilet with no sealer on. When I clean the toilet tiles they shine after just a mop however when I mop the sealer covered ones in the kitchen, unless I mop, then scrub, then buff then they look smeary. How can I remove the sealer from the porcelain tiles in the toilet? Any ideas are welcome please?”
And our suggested answer:
“Your situation sounds fairly straight-forward. Perhaps, your porcelain did not need a sealer, not all do, or perhaps too much was applied - in any event, you have got sealer residue left on the surface (this is not where it is meant to be, it is supposed to be just inside any pores in the tile and the surplus should have been removed from the surface before it dried). So, now you have a very thin coating of a polymer of some kind adhered to the face of the tiles. This residue, will attract dirt and will not be as easy to clean as the bare tile.
So, you need to remove it, depending on how long it has had to cure, and how much there is etc, you may be able to remove simply with Nanoscrub, a little water, and a white nylon pad - take a look at our recent post on how to use Nanoscrub.
If the sealer is now quite old and Nanoscrub on it’s own is not quite enough, then you may need to soften it up with a type of stripper, such as Sealer and Coating Remover. The way to use this is to apply it neat to the floor, leave it for about 30 minutes then scrub and rinse well. You could add some Nanoscrub just at the point you are about to start scrubbing if you like as this would boost the cleaning power of the Sealer and Coating Remover.
Printing on ceramic tiles to custom ceramic tiles has become a new trend between youth. And also the custom tile shower. So you need a ceramic tile printer. Yes, ceramic tile printing is a really fantastic thing to me. So does the ceramic tile prints. Printed ceramic cups and mugs are good gifts for your friends and family.
