Porcelain tiles are gaining more and more space in properties due to their elegance, versatility, durability and, especially at the moment, because they are one of the most hygienic coverings available. This is because its waterproof surface prevents the installation of bacteria, viruses and fungi and dirt can be removed with simple cleaning. “A quality porcelain tile does not stain easily and does not require frequent washing, but some care in maintenance is ideal to ensure that the covering maintains its characteristic elegance and durability”, explains architect Mariana Mota, director of Cerbras, a reference industry in the production of porcelain tiles. Check out the architect’s tips for ideally cleaning your porcelain tiles:
1 – To keep your porcelain surfaces always clean, use the following solution: a tablespoon of detergent or neutral soap diluted in five liters of water. Avoid acidic products that promise deep and quick cleaning, as they tend to be aggressive to porcelain, altering its shine.
2 – Prefer to vacuum your porcelain or sweep with soft bristle instruments so as not to scratch. Do not use steel wool for this cleaning as it may scratch the coating.
3 – When choosing your porcelain tiles, prefer the ones that are really anti-stain! Any dirt can be removed in most cases with a damp cloth and the use of neutral detergents.
4 – For the removal of more difficult stains, the use of specific products available on the market that guarantee cleaning without compromising the technical/aesthetic characteristics of the coating is recommended.
5 – You can finish cleaning with a dry cloth and then apply a small amount of 70% alcohol to ensure complete asepsis of the surface.
