Cleaned up the Quarry Tiles on my Hearth lovely thanks

Use gloves, may need to use more than once to get best results.I had 3 goes to get desired result.

Used to clean old terracotta tiles found under carpets in the floods on 1/January/2025,they cleaned the tiles very well but I would follow the instructions carefully as leaving on too long could damage the finish on the tile,the cleaner removes ingrained grime so quite strong leaving the tiles clean and bright with negligible smell but I did have the doors open,the cleaner was good value for money as I now love the terracotta tiling on show,Highly Recommended.

A last gasp chance at cleaning some filthy quarry tiles - 4 sqm - in our porchI followed the instructions,very easy to use. Because the tiles were so engrained, I used it neat with a scrubbing brushIt worked beautifully - but it did only just do the 4sqm

Cleaned the floor up very nicely.

This was OK but did not do enough on my floor. I went out and purchased the same make but a more extreme product that was for natural stone still but more powerful.... The powerful extreme one did a better job. The reason was because it is an older floor with layers of seal and dirt build up..

If you are prepared to get on your knees and scrub your floor this is a real find. I have a 400 yr old cottage with an old red brick floor and old terracotta tiles in the corridor. I also used this on the 400 year old red brick fireplace. I was able to remove years of engrained dirt and black marks and bring them back to their original state. I used half a litre to cover around 30sqm. I poured it directly onto the floor and immediately scrubbed then left the product on for around 20 minutes to then wash the floor at least 4 times with luke warm water. Once completely dry I then used HG Terracotta Shine Seal on the floor only ( see my review of this product) which gave a matt yet shiny finish. The result was just as I had hoped. I am now washing the floor with HG Clean and shine and do buff the floor up now and again with a polisher. I had considered getting a professional company in to do the floors but am pleased now I didn't, with just £50 and a lot of elbow grease not only have I saved a considerable amount of money but I have a significant amount of personal satisfaction.

The full suite of products for terra cotta tiles has done a wonderful job of restoring and maintaining my 1920s tiles. Follow the instructions and you won't be sorry for spending the money.
