A solution of one part white vinegar and three parts water can be used to remove white mineral stains from bathroom tiles. Lightly spray the solution, leave it for about five minutes, wipe with a soft cloth or sponge, and rinse with clean water. Always test vinegar on a small, inconspicuous area first.
The narrow grout lines between tiles quickly accumulate dirt and grime. For light dirt, use an old toothbrush or a small soft brush to clean them. You can also apply a small amount of baking soda paste, gently scrub without applying excessive force, and then wipe the area thoroughly with clean water.
Harsh chemicals, bleach, ammonia, steel wool, and very abrasive scrubbers can damage the surface of bathroom tiles and scratch their finish. In some cases, changing the tile surface finish through excessive scrubbing can even make the floor more slippery than before.
