FILA Solutions provides advanced products for cleaning and maintaining stone and tiles.
This article aims to offer practical solutions for maintaining tile and stone surfaces using the company’s system: DETERDEK PRO for removing cement grout residues from porcelain tiles, CR10 for tackling epoxy grout, PS87 PRO for heavy-duty cleaning, and CLEANER PRO for routine maintenance and grout residue removal on delicate stone.
Proper care after installation is crucial for maintaining the longevity and appearance of stone and tiles. Prompt removal of grout residues is necessary to avoid problems like grout haze and dullness arising from leftover cementitious grout. Residue can attract dirt, making surfaces harder to clean and diminishing their appearance. The right cleaning system immediately ensures a pristine finish and simplifies ongoing maintenance.
For example, DETERDEK PRO is specifically designed to remove cementitious grout residues from porcelain tiles. It effectively tackles grout haze to maintain the tile’s finish. In contrast, natural stones like marble and limestone need a delicate cleaner to remove residues while preserving their original look.
Additionally, heavy-duty cleaning is indispensable for removing stubborn residues with persistent grime from high-traffic areas or environments. FILA says its system offers a comprehensive approach, combining initial grout removal, routine maintenance, and periodic heavy-duty cleaning to keep your tiles and stones in optimal condition.
While DETERDEK PRO is suitable for removing cement grout residues, what if epoxy grout has been used? In this scenario, the company says, CR10 is the solution. This formula not only cleans effectively but also helps prevent future buildup. Its high viscosity is perfect for vertical surfaces, such as walls, and it works well on various non-absorbent materials.
For routine maintenance, CLEANER PRO is described as a highly concentrated cleaner suitable for all surfaces, including delicate materials like polished marble and limestone. As mentioned, it’s also effective for removing post-installation residues from stone surfaces. This cleaner is designed to provide a gentle yet effective solution without risking damage to stone materials. It thoroughly cleans without leaving streaks and works with manual and machine cleaning.
In addition, contractors may encounter scenarios that require heavy-duty cleaning due to significant buildup or contamination. Common settings include commercial kitchens, industrial environments, and high-traffic areas where grease and dirt accumulate over time. Such tasks typically involve specialised products like PS87 PRO, which is designed to tackle extensive grime and organic stains with strong degreasing properties, ensuring a thorough surface clean.
Once essential cleaning tasks are complete, the company says, focusing on protecting natural stone surfaces is imperative. FILA Solutions provides advanced protective methods, including MP90 ECO XTREME, designed to enhance the durability and maintenance of stone surfaces.
With the right cleaning program featuring these exceptional products, your tile and stone installations will enjoy lasting beauty and optimal performance. These professional-grade solutions are designed to support superior surface care. For more details on these and other advanced products, visit FILA Solutions’ website or contact its technical team.
