Give Your Customers Sparkling Clean Tile

Getting tile and grout to look brand new can be a tough job. Over time, dirt, grime, and oily soils build up, leaving floors looking dull and discolored. For a professional-level clean, you need a powerful formula designed for the task. Prochem Professional Tile and Grout Cleaner tackles the most stubborn messes on ceramic tile and grout lines, serving as the perfect first step in your cleaning process.

Why Use Professional Tile and Grout Cleaner

This potent, low-foaming, high-alkaline cleaner offers industrial-strength performance for both residential and commercial settings with low VOCs. Its advanced formula includes powerful detergents and surfactants that allow it to penetrate deep into porous grout to loosen and break down greasy, oily soils - without harsh acids that can cause etching or damage. This water-based solution is designed to work seamlessly with professional equipment, ensuring a thorough and safe clean every time.

Items Needed

To achieve the best results with Professional Tile and Grout Cleaner, you will need the right equipment.

Electric Pump Sprayer
Apply solution to the floor with either an electric or pump sprayer. Make sure to apply to solution evenly for best results.

Truckmount or Portable Extractor
A truckmount or portable extractor is essential for the deep cleaning and extraction phase. This equipment ensures effective removal of dirt and residues.

Specialized Cleaning Tools
You should also have a hard surface cleaning tool for large floor areas and an edging tool to properly clean floor edges, countertops, and walls.

Pro Tips

  • Pressure clean edges first with an edging tool, then clean the rest of the floor with a hard surface cleaning tool.
  • Pre-test before using on natural stone
  • Boost your solution with Citrus Pro for even better cleaning results!

How to Use

Prochem Professional Tile and Grout Cleaner is ideal for a variety of hard surfaces, including manufactured tile, grout, vinyl, and concrete. Follow these steps for best results:

  1. Always pre-test on a hidden area first - especially crucial on VCT and natural stone.
  2. Avoid spraying onto wood, aluminum, stain-resistant carpets, upholstery fabrics, or other delicate surfaces. Use with caution near painted surfaces, plastics, "no-wax" resilient floors, and soft natural stone.
  3. Mix 14 ounces of the concentrate with water to make one gallon of ready-to-use solution.
  4. Apply it to the surface, letting it dwell for 5-10 minutes, depending on soil level.
  5. Pressure clean surface with hot water, using a portable or truckimount extractor. If using a truckmount, operate at 800-1,000 PSI for ceramic tile.
  6. After a final pass to pick up any remaining water with your extraction tool, you can towel dry or let the surface dry to a brilliant, clean finish.
  7. Allow surface and grout to dry before allowing any traffic.
