Home Improvement - COUNTERS - CERAMIC TILE COUNTERS-CARE AND CLEANI

Ceramic Tile Counters-Care and Cleaning
Care
Protect against chipping by using a cutting board.
Protect against scratches, especially on glazed tiles,
by using a heat proof mat under hot pans, and electrical
appliances on the counter. Avoid hard blows which can
chip the tile.

Cleaning
Wash with detergent solution, and rinse. To clean
dingy grout, occasionally apply a solution of chlorine
bleach and water to stand not more than 5 minutes; rinse
thoroughly and wipe dry. General-purpose household
cleaners may also be used if label says can be used on
ceramic tile; follow directions exactly. NEVER use
scouring powders or other abrasives as they will scratch
the finish.

Creamy liquid appliance wax can be used, if wished, for
further protection of tile and grout.
