I am trying to clean a victorian tiled hall floor but am having a problem.
The floor has been previously sealed with Hg Golvpolish.
I have cleaned the floor back using Hg Remover but the area of the floor that gets the most traffic and is a bit more worn than the rest now looks white and patchy...

Hi, and thanks at the outset to anyone helping with some advice.
I've just found underneath some lino in my hallway, some beautiful Victorian tiles. However, the lino was stuck to the tiles with some brown/yellow glue, and it has been there for about 25-30 years. While I've managed to get off...
