How to clean slate tile before you seal it - UPDATED
UPDATED from earlier today
We rented the saw, cut all of the tile, and had them all set in place within four hours. The saw was returned, we went to eat at Bob Evans, and all was good! I was quite surprised that everything went as smoothly as it did. Although we did not actually clean the tiles yet, I did buy a product for it. We’ll get them cleaned probably Tuesday night, after the new tiles have had two days to totally set up and dry. The tile cleaner I bought:
“Tilelab Grout and Tile Cleaner” is a nonabrasive, citrus-based cleaner safe enough for everyday use.
Developed without harsh chemicals or fumes, it removes grease, stains dirt, mold, mildew and soap scum from any ceramic tile or grout. Wipes off without rinsing and leave a fresh citrus scent.
I will talk about how this product performed later, as a separate product review. It was reasonably priced, and I had read some good things about it on a DIY forum that I frequently check out. Anyway, just wanted to write up a quick followup to the post from this morning. Success with the tile saw! Huzzah! Bob Evans’ cinnamon pancakes, Huzzah!
