Morning . HG tile grout remover . Mix it about 10-1 and see how you get on , make it stronger if needed but don't go below 4 to one as it will burn your hands. Try on an old tile first too

Tile cleaner from tile shops . It's an acid that you water down . Brilliant stuff if used correctly. Flash and all that shite is no good

The house I'm doing a bit of work in (it's my mother in law's house) has terracotta coloured ceramic floor tiles in the ground floor.

When the workmen were in sorting the walls and kitchen out ages ago, they left plaster and paint marks on the tiles. I have managed to clean most of them off in several goes using Flash and diluted bleach, but some tiles have stains on them that just won't go.

Any ideas how to get rid of them? Also, the tiles look good when they are wet but once dry they are cloudy looking and can see whirl marks from the mop/brush that's been used to clean the floor. Are you meant to put some kind of polish or protective layer on these bad boys?
