Tiles are more than just a practical surface; they are a statement of style and resilience in your spaces. Over time, even the most stunning tiles need proper care to maintain their brilliance.
Whether you’re installing new tiles or revitalizing existing ones, our step-by-step guide provides everything you need to keep them looking flawless and vibrant for years to come.
Step 1: Cleaning Your Tiles
Why it Matters: Proper cleaning ensures that your tiles remain free of dirt, stains, grout haze and residue, creating a pristine surface ready for sealing or grouting.
Product Recommendation: Athena's Heavy Duty Tile Cleaner
This alkaline-based solution removes tough stains, grease, grout haze and grime while being gentle on delicate surfaces like cement tiles and marble.
How to Clean:
- Remove dust and debris using a broom or vacuum.
- Dilute Athena’s Heavy Duty Tile Cleaner based on the type of dirt:
- Apply the solution evenly with a mop or sponge.
- Let it sit for 10-15 minutes, scrubbing lightly with a non-abrasive sponge.
- Rinse thoroughly with clean water and dry the surface.
Step 2: Removing Tough Stains
Why it Matters: Stubborn stains, including oil and food stains can dull the beauty of your tiles, but effective removal restores their original appeal.
Product Recommendation: Apollo’s Oil Stain Remover and Artemis’ Food Stain Remover
Apollo is designed for heavy-duty oil-based stain removal, while Artemis targets organic food stains like coffee, wine, and sauces.
How to Remove Oil Stains:
- Apply Apollo’s Oil Stain Remover directly to the affected area.
- Let it sit for 10-15 minutes to deeply penetrate the stain.
- Scrub gently with a non-abrasive sponge or brush.
- Rinse thoroughly with water and dry.
How to Remove Food Stains:
- Apply Artemis’ Food Stain Remover directly to the stained area.
- Let it work for 5-10 minutes.
- Wipe clean with a damp cloth or sponge.
- Rinse and dry the surface to restore its natural appearance.
Step 3: Sealing Your Tiles
Why it Matters: Sealing protects your tiles from stains, moisture, and wear, enhancing their durability and maintaining their natural beauty.
Product Recommendation: Poseidon’s Tile Primer + Zeus’ Tile Sealer
Poseidon’s Tile Primer provides a water-repellent base, while Zeus’ Tile Sealer adds a durable, stain-resistant layer.
How to Prime and Seal:
1. Ensure the tiles are clean and dry.
2. Priming Your Tiles:
- Apply Poseidon’s Tile Primer with a lambswool applicator, sponge, or cloth.
- Allow the primer to penetrate the surface for 5-10 minutes.
- For low-absorbent surfaces, wipe off any excess with a clean cloth.
- For porous tiles, allow full absorption without residue.
3. Sealing Your Tiles:
- Once the primer is dry, apply Zeus’ Tile Sealer in thin, even layers.
- Let it penetrate for 5-10 minutes.
- Remove excess sealer with a clean cloth to avoid surface marks.
4. Allow 12 hours to dry before exposing to traffic. For full protection, let the sealer cure for 24 hours.
Step 4: Maintaining Your Tiles
Why it Matters: Routine maintenance keeps your tiles looking their best while preventing buildup and long-term damage.
