i think he meant thinner=diluted, not thinner=chemical

I tried thiiner before, white blotches everwhere

Ya thinner does that, avoid thinner at all costs not worth it

Hello Leon75, are you living in HDB, and the tiles are provided by them? If so, there is no use to clean the tiles. Because of the quality of the tiles, the dirt is trapped in the tiles, and there is no way to remove them. What I do is to hack it and relay good tiles.

My resale flat has this problem too. I used melamine sponge from Daiso. It works but you need to spend time scrubbing the floor. You can refer my tblog: bachelorette on budget for photos.

yeah the magic sponge from daiso does wonders

looks like this

I used the sponge before from daiso, never worked at all on top of that too time consuming, but then again what can you expect from a $2 product

I use my Karcher steam cleaner for grout, together with the hard bristle brush that comes with it.

Fantastic, no cleaning agent required, just hot steam.

Used to try with bleach and the magic sponge, but bleach "eats" the grout and magic sponge "eats my nails and household gloves".

Maybe but thinner will destroy the enamel on your tiles whether diluted or not

aiyo , he is trying to say more diluted vinegar+ water & not "thinner" ....

This sounds like a cooking recipe

But would not steam damage those that have homogeneous or marble tiles?

You hack all your tiles to prevent cleaning them
