How to deep clean ceramic tile or linoleum?
I've moved into an apartment and the floor is either really cheap ceramic time or well-laid linoleum. One way or another, you could see that it's been there for a good long while and is kind of grimy, probably from years of neglect. It was much lighter back in the day (as I can see in other apartments in my complex), now it's just gray.
I've tried cleaning the floor with Ajax but it only got it a bit lighter.
What are some of the tools, cleaners, chemicals, etc... that I can use to really deep clean it, get rid of the grime and bring the floor to it's original color?
Simple Green works well on getting rid of dirty build up. Be careful about using anything too abrasive because it will take the gloss coat right off the tile. In other words, no more scouring powder. You may have already damaged the flooring. Or the person before you did the same thing and that's why the floor looks the way it does.
Simple Green and a nylon scrubber or a soft scrub brush is as abrasive as I would get. Put down the cleaning solution on an area, leave it work for awhile 5-10 minutes and come back and give it a scrub. Then mop up the dirty water. Once the entire floor is scrubbed, run a bucket of hot water with a couple cups of white vinegar in it to remove any residues left and mop thoroughly.
