THANK YOU SO MUCH. Just got tile paid and I was dealing with this haze. Came on my fav thing to learn things (UA-cam) and you were the 1st video I watched. So grateful for your help
Will this option also work on thin set that got on top of the set tile? I tiled my bedroom and took a bit too long to clean thinner residue and now I have stained tiles.
Will this hurt ceramic tiles? I was told not to use any acid and to watch the PH looks like vinegar already my have left streaks on my new tiles. Tiles are WOW grace tile, mat in teal.
Thank you so much for sharing this. I recently had a new bathroom shower put in and this haze is on my tile. Looking closer, it was actually all over the place, walls and floor. I knew it had to be something that the guy did because I had to stop him in the middle of the job and get someone else to finish because his work was not what he said it would be. I'm happy to know this will come off with a little chemical although I was looking for a more natural approach. Thanks again for sharing!
You can use a mix of dawn and vinegar and use a brush, that’s will take care of the haze pretty easy, I just did it last week on a new black floor, the only thing is that the black grout kept a whiteish shade but I did a second last just in the grout and then sealed it and everything is good now.
@@Lucky-23. definitely didn't bother the guy until that job was complete.. he had a few jobs to do here and I wasn't letting him do the floor too, if the tile came out looking that way. It was a true nightmare but luckily was fixed by his boss. Found out he didn't wash it off correctly. The tile on the floor his boss finished looked great. No haze or streaking at all..
Then you did the right choice some tile guys are just trying to make a quick payday and some love what they do I guess the boss loves what he does and thats why he is the boss,,,im a tile guy myself love what I do
Our grey tiles has these but not in a pattern just like strokes but its like water marks like water drops in circle what is that is it also haze residues????
Will this pull up a color seal? We had to grout some areas and then we had to color seal some areas. I was afraid to do anything to the color sealed area until it had time to set. So the grout haze was still there and I want to fix it, I just dont want to pull up the color seal with any chemical I use.
My tile fresh applying grout almond half white colour is getting gey in some places ( I am having color variation) Does anyone know the reason and solution for it? 😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮 Please somebody reply me what to do
Thank you !! I just tiled and. I noticed when if I walk with a muddy shoes and try to mop won’t do anything and if I use my fingers to rub it off it rubs off ! I think I’m sure I didn’t clean. The grout properly cause I was like I leave it till I finish building a month later then I give it another mop
I got paid to clean haze off of tile thanks to a home owner who watched a UA-cam do it yourself video. It's not always a careless tile installer. Home Depot do it yourself folks keep me busy in repair work.
@@patricksnavely5850 I have a customer who wants this exact thing done , it’s over a large area though , how can I do a large area without having to go one by one

We get grout haze every time we wash the floor. We have a grey, sandy grout and after washing the floor there is a grey haze near the grout seams in sporadic places. Is there a way to prevent this?
Seal your grout. You should read the directions on the back of the bottle.. you are supposed to SEAL it a few times.. more the better. Our tiles look brand-new because we sealed the grout lines.. have resealed over the years. Plus that's nasty to think of what's getting into your grout so Save yourself a cleaning headache and SEAL the grout 😂
Do yourself a favor, seal your tile before you grout. I use Professionals choice high gloss sealer...:-) I'm sure they also have semi gloss and satin finish. Also helps with making it a lot easier to clean your floor later on...;-)
I wish I read this comment before grouting my rough ceramic tile. The glass mosaics ckeaned up fine because it was already smooth but the tile is spotted with haze. I couldn't see it till thd tiles dried after each wipe, by thrm it was too tough to remove.
Where can I purchase the aqua Mix floor pads that look like non-scratch pads that go onto a mop handle? The days of working on my knees are long gone so I need to stand when cleaning glaze off floors. Thanks....
Well, does it actually remove the scratch? I don't think so. It just removes the dirt trapped in those scratches. Any way, your video helped me to atleast remove the dirt. Also, if I look at those areas directly I dont see the scratch, but it's only visible while I'm looking at it against the light. Thanks & good luck!
@@lizhorn6429 No, straight from the bottle. I put some vinegar on a Bounty and it came right off. I tried Fantastic and other cleaners, but nothing worked. The guy who did my tiles was very sloppy and cleaned the excess grout with a rag into a bucket of water. He kept using the same dirty water to clean up all the grout so I was left with my tiles having a film of grout. I cleaned it the next day with the white vinegar. I don't know about grout that may be on tiles for a long time though.
@@richardalex9428 then they should disclose that first, they could capitalize on selling you the additional service. Customers for tile in general know nothing about tiling. Unprofessional, but hey today majority in any career are garbage!

bro big yourself up! you helped me out of a massive jam!
What about the grout lines & how long do you have to wait, after grouting the tiles
Normally 3 weeks
does this work with tiles with rough texture?
Will this affect the grout ?
I am wondering the same thing?
Will this option also work on thin set that got on top of the set tile? I tiled my bedroom and took a bit too long to clean thinner residue and now I have stained tiles.
Great tips. Worked a treat
Folks buy you a can of cheap household cleaner that's for countertops and tiles and use a cheap car buffer to olish the floor, works like a charm
Will this hurt ceramic tiles? I was told not to use any acid and to watch the PH looks like vinegar already my have left streaks on my new tiles. Tiles are WOW grace tile, mat in teal.
Where can I get the stuff
Good video. Trustworthy guy
Nice demonstration
Will this remove color from wood painted tile
Does this ruin the seal on tile
Hello sir, I appreciate your video so much, i learned alot , thank you, I have a question, will this work on Porcelain tile also?
Can This acid remove the filling grout between tiles??

Its probably cause you stoped him while he was grouting should of let him finish and had him clean up

Can u use that on porcelain slabs ??
Hi thanks for the tip how long do I need to wait after grouting to use the remover please
Don't use the remover. Try a floor machine and a steel wool pad.
does this work on peel and stick vinyl tiles too?
The acid is for grout haze. A white or red pad (light abrasive) and a good neutral cleaner should work for ur situation
Our grey tiles has these but not in a pattern just like strokes but its like water marks like water drops in circle what is that is it also haze residues????
Hey, did you ever find out what was wrong with your floor or were you able to clean it? I have the exact same thing and im losing my mind.
What kind of acid?
Gonna try that now thanks for the tip
Wow that looks great, would maybe be easier with an auto scrubber, shop vac and mops. Is it required to do this by hand??

Just vinigar or do i add something else
Thank you
Hi mate! Where did you purchase the Phosphoric acid substitute that you used on your video?Cheers!
@@dianjane Are you saying it didn’t work to remove the haze?
Should i do this after i seal the lines?
Lol if u sealed your tiles with haze your stuck with it for life.
Thanks!!!
Will this work for grout haze on a slate effect shower tray?
It's an ingredient found in colas( coke,Pepsi ) and dental products,look it up
Just imagine the tiler cleaned it properly when it was still drying
Exactly. Just suffered a messy (careless job) and now have this issue of haze.

Remove the haze and seal your grout if you haven't sealed yet

My tiles are Matt is the sealer for the tiles only
Or for the grout

Ok and what if there are also paint droppings on it, then how do you clean both off?
JAB putty knife,razor blade or laquer thinner.
We used magic eraser to get the grout haze off.
and does it stay off?
Does it work
doesn't always work. Especially on rough textured tile. If the tile is smooth then yes.
@@lliaolsen728 oh we have rough white tiles which has black haze stains 🥺
Vinegar
1,999 left to do...
How far are you now?
Mahmood Mahfoodh I said fuck it after two and left lmao
I really just poured it on the tile after I wet it
I did large parts of the floor at the same time

Water and steel wool...no acid needed
If the tile surface allows it. Some tile would be ruined by that approach.
White wine vinegar is much cheaper.
thank you, thank you, thank you, the white vinegar worked like a breeze.

vinegar works... 1/3 with 2/3 water
Can’t use that on stone tile so if you have travertine, etc, you’re out of luck.
