Your welcome, hope the product works for you. So hard to find things that work on tile.

This is my best solution for cleaning unsealed tile. It brings out all the color in the tile and leaves it looking really great.

The technical information on the manufacturer's website simply says it is for natural stone. It doesn't say whether the stone must be unsealed or sealed. If they did not specify, then I would say you could use it on either one. But if you want to be absolutely sure, contact the manufacturer: Custom Building Products Technical Services 10400 Pioneer Boulevard, Unit 2 Santa Fe Springs, CA 90670 Customer Support: 800-272-8786 Technical Services: 800-282-8786 Fax: 800- 200-7765 Email: contactus@cbpmail.net custombuildingproducts.com

The mister clean part is only a slightly more heavy duty part of the pad. I do not think it would create the same issue as the sponge which is meant to be highly but gently abrasive, this is not. Make sure you are using the liquid for wood floors though. IMO based upon my experience these should not be an issue, but I have tile and can not really say for sure what affect they will have.

Yes it would, I happen to have a new self sealing grout that is very stain resistant, however I do clean up drips immediately. If I leave the drips, even the stain resistant grout will show a very slight discoloration. I imagine an unsealed grout would stain quickly.

No it will not work. Of course it depends on the tile. But if it is a ceramic tile or a marble with a slick smooth surface it will actually just wipe off like using a crayola marker. It would need some texture or some sort of porous surface.

To be honest I've never used this device since purchasing it. I bought it for ceramic tile floors only to discover that after using the liquid in the tank on the floor I would have to either mop the floor or use a wet-dry vacuum. The polisher sits in the utility room unused.

I do not know I have not used this on grout very much. Although i have used it on our school bathroom floor and it seemed to clean up ok. I did not pay real close attention to that because the grout is not that dirty. Sorry i could not help you out more.

No. We have used it on tile and it does the most superficial wiping of the floor and doesn't clean the grout.

I don't know personally. I used it for my indoor porcelain tile grout. However, the label says "Effectively removes sealers, coatings & finishes; Cleans deep-set stains, epoxy grout haze, adhesives and paints; Fast & effective on heavy grease buildup. Use for: porcelain, ceramic, slate, granite, marble, quarry, saltillo, terra cotta, grout, flagstone & concrete pavers"

I just used it on some very dirty floor grout. The grout is much cleaner, but it is tedious cleaning the grout lines and the steamer is pretty heavy and 'clunky', but it did the job.

It does work on tile grout. I suggest using the round brass scrubber. It makes the job a lot easier. Hope this is helpful.

Yes it will. It will remove all coatings, as well as the spatters, down to the concrete surface. Clean after with Emerge degreaser. You can always call us direct at 800-538-5069 for further tech support. Regards,Stephenie

Yes, it absolutely does work on tile floors. We innstalled new tile floors last month and it did a super job getting up the fine dust after I had mopped it twice!Highly recommend.

I never used it on any broken tiles, but I can't imagine that it would harm anything, since it is clear. In any event, it provides a clean "shine".

I haven't used it yet but I found this recommended on this website. Take a look, maybe they can answer your question. http://tilecleaning.org/stripping-saltillo-tiles.htm

There is a limit how much it can clean the grout. If it clean (WHITE) then it keeps them clean and white but if it is already dark/dirty it wont make them white again! But it does clean quite well. Remember it is a compact unit and it does not compare with large floor units (industrial type)

Removes surface dirt, but doesn't "scrub" grout completely clean like a toothbrush and elbow grease. But once you do that, would probably keep it clean.

It may stain unsealed grout, but not permanently. Rinse off quickly and it shouldn't stain.
