Hi Stuart
I agree with John on this one.
Hard to tell on the picture, the only other thing I can think of
is if it’s a porcelain tile, even though they say its 99% absorbent free
that 1% still seems to be a problem.
The recommendation below is perfect, on a porcelain , if its metal
that rubbed against the tile floor, like a workers tool box the soft scrub
should remove it, my preference is comet or Ajax, as I can control the
intensity of the abrasive by adding more or less water.
Also its perfect opportunity to sell a sealer treatment.
Verify to see that there is no wax as Giorgia mentioned by
passing a blade over it. Cause then it needs stripping!

Stuart,
This is an interesting picture of the white tile. My first
comment would be it looks like something has been spilled on the tile and
stained the tile the color of the materials spilled. I would try the following:
1.
Clean the tile with a
alkaline based cleaner,
2.
Vac up the cleaning materials
3.
Clean a second time using a
neutral cleaner .
Hopefully this would clean up the mess.
If that does not work then use the same process but use an acid
based cleaner in place of the alkaline cleaner.
While scrubbing this area you may want to add an mild abrasive
to your cleaners. You may find a product like soft scrub will take care of the
problem. It’s not likely it penetrated through the glazed finish.

The problem that is happening with the
white tiles is that they are staining and discoloring.
Does anyone know what this is or could be.I
havent seen this in person yet only seen this pic.Is there a remedy?
