Title: Ceramic Tiles
Post by: Ben Lugg on February 27, 2012, 08:42:44 pm

Hi,
can you use Ultrapac Renovate (prochem), on ceramic tiled floors and if so do you need to neutralise with an acidic product after scrubbing and wet vacuuming.

Many thanks.

Ben.

If you are sure they are ceramic and not porcelain the job is simple as dirt cannot penetrate the glaze so it will all be surface only.  Pre wet the floor and scrub with a high alkaline cleaner.  Allow it to dwell then extract and rinse and extract again.

Ultrapac will be fine.

Its a pH 10.5

Just needs a good rinse.
