1. Linseed Oil for Extra Shine
Terracotta, cement, and ceramic tiles often lose their shine over time. But there’s a natural ingredient that can bring back their luster – linseed oil. All you need to do is apply a few drops of linseed oil on a clean cloth and gently rub it on the tiles. Be careful not to use too much oil, as it can make the floor slippery. Let the oil soak into the tiles and dry. You can reapply it if needed. Your tiles will shine like never before!
2. Potato Cooking Water for Grease Removal
Next time you boil potatoes, don’t throw away the cooking water. Instead, use it to clean your tiles. The starch in the potato water helps absorb grease and dirt from the surface. This method is particularly effective for maintaining the shine of your tiles. Use the potato cooking water once a month to keep your tiles looking spotless.
3. Black Soap for a Natural Clean
Black soap is a versatile cleaning agent that works wonders on tiles, linoleum, and even parquet flooring. It’s a degreaser and disinfectant, making it perfect for getting rid of dirt and grime. To use black soap, mix it with a liter of water in a bucket. Grab a mop and gently scrub each floor. Not only will your floors be clean, but they’ll also have a beautiful shine that you won’t be able to resist.
4. White Vinegar for Stubborn Stains
White vinegar is a powerful natural cleaner that can tackle even the toughest stains on tiles. Mix equal parts of white vinegar and water in a spray bottle. Spray the solution on the stained areas and let it sit for a few minutes. Then, scrub the stains with a brush or sponge. Rinse with water and admire your stain-free, shiny tiles.
