• Whatever be the type of floor, test clean a small tiled area first and see the effects before using a floor cleanser on the entire floor.
• The floors with unglazed floor tiles can be cleaned by vacuum cleaners. They should be dusted very often. Use a mild detergent and little water to clean them.
