The first and most important step involves the complete removal of grout residue and construction debris after the initial installation. The most effective way to remove grout residue is to follow the grout manufacturers recommendations and instructions.
For products with a matte or textured finish Horizon Tile recommends using Fila Deterdek Acid Cleaner post-installation to remove thin set residue and grout haze on porcelain tile.
For products with a polished finish or finishes that are acid sensitive Horizon Tile recommends using Fila Neutral Cleaner.
Thorough rinsing with clean water is necessary to ensure successful cleaning.
