Easy Ways to Clean Shower Tiles

Beautiful shower tiles in a bathroom make it look stylish and decorative. However, these tiles often get dirty because of the calcium in the water, mildew, soap scum and rust. All of these factors act together to bring a dirty and dingy look to your beautiful decorative bathroom. Cleaning tiles and bringing back the shine of your bathroom is no doubt a hard task. However, there are some great solutions to this problem. Check out the following easy ways to clean shower tiles in your bathroom.

Shower tiles can be of different types such as ceramic tiles, porcelain tiles, stone tiles and so on. The cleaning process also varies depending on the type of the tiles. If you have ceramic tiles in your bathroom shower, vinegar may do the trick. Take equal amount of warm water, vinegar and baking soda in a spray bottle. Mix them together by shaking the bottle well. Now spray this solution all over the tiles in your bathroom. Don’t miss any corners. Leave it on the tiles for a few minutes. Then take an old used toothbrush and scrub the wall tiles. Scrubbing is essential for removing those nasty stains. After scrubbing for a few minutes, wipe the tiles with a wet piece of cloth.

Vinegar also works wonders in cleaning porcelain tiles. However, while preparing the vinegar solution for cleaning your porcelain tiles, cut out the baking soda. On the other hand, if you have stone tiles in your bathroom, you may use any liquid soap to clean them. Add a few drops of a mild liquid soap in a bottle of water. Shake the bottle and spray the water on the stone tiles. Wait for a few minutes and then brush the tiles. Give a little more pressure on the tile grout. Then wash off the walls with clean water and wipe with a dry tissue or a piece of cloth.
