Cleaning tile floors, especially in high-traffic areas like bathrooms, can be a challenging task. However, with the right DIY tile floor cleaner, you can make the process more manageable. Here’s a recipe for a heavy-duty tile floor cleaner that’s effective in removing grime and stains:
Ingredients:
- 1/4 cup distilled white vinegar
- 1/4 cup washing soda
- 1 tsp liquid dish soap
- 2 gallons very warm water
Instructions:
- Mix the 1/4 cup of distilled white vinegar, 1/4 cup of washing soda, and 1 tsp of liquid dish soap in the bottom of a bucket.
- Add 2 gallons of very warm water to the mixture and mix well.
