Help - dettol bathroom cleaner left staines on black polished porcelain

[Cdh299]

Hi, hope someone can help!

I used Dettol bathroom cleaner on my black polished porcelain tiles and it has left awful stains where the cleaner was sprayed on the tiles. No matter how much I scrub they wont come off.

What can I do to get rid of them?

Thanks

I have seen alsorts used to hide scratches...stains etc...it was just a thought i had that maybe shoe polish might have been used to hide the stains...seen as the joints had gone black as well...and then they buffed it off and applied the sealer and then it smeared...??????


All just summising really because we don't know what he used..but deffo needs looking at.

out of interest Dave, if we decide to get our money back and get our own tiler in, can you recommend anyone in the St Albans area?

I will able to sort that for you....let us know how it goes first and then we will sort a tiler if needed.

From your description it sounds to me as though there was either a grout haze or wax left on the tiles and they have tried to cover it

pleeeeeassse! tell us why?

Its coming out because whatever this black stuff was stained the grey grout grey. Even if they managed to strip the tiles themselves back to the start condition, scraping the grout out to re grout them will scratch the sides of the tiles.

They have sent a new fitter now who seems to have his head screwed on.

Second time lucky....
