What are ceramic tiles made from?
Ceramic tiles are made from a variety of things, and are made in a variety of ways. This means that lucky for you, they offer the convenience of many design possibilities. However, the most common method, used for the traditional glazed tiles, is to fire clay at extremely high heats. It then has a tough, glasslike surface, and is non-porous. However, the grout you use to hold the tiles together is extremely porous. How do you clean ceramic tiles? To clean ceramic tiles the best thing to do is simply wipe them off using a damp cloth and a mild dishwashing soap. You would then rinse them off with a clean, damp cloth. If there are tough spots or stains you would use a mildly abrasive cleaner, but only for those specific spots. If you do not have a cleaner, make a mixture of baking soda and water. Then use a soft cloth.
