FAQ:
Q: Is this cleaner safe for all tile types?
A: Yes, but test a small hidden area first, especially on natural stone tiles, as hydrogen peroxide may cause discoloration.
Q: Can I use this cleaner on colored grout?
A: It’s best for white or light-colored grout. For colored grout, test a spot to ensure it doesn’t bleach or fade.
