Joe,
Good comments and recommendations
My only concern and CAUTION is using steel wool in a shower or
bathroom there is risk of leaving steel wool fragments behind. If anyone
uses steel wool in bathroom or showers I highly recommend using a magnetic
broom to pick up the steel wool fragments that may be around the area you are
working. After using a magnetic broom I then would recommend rinsing the area where
you worked including walls, floors etc. then taking a vet and dry van and suck
up all water. This process will pretty much guarantee you have picked up
ALL steel wool.

I use Gel Gloss on Cultured Marble after cleaning &
polishing. It has carnauba waxes and it’s easy to use , needs to be
reapplied frequently. For ceramic or porcelain tile I use a 7” steel wool
pad with soft scrub and a pinch of honing powder or a hogs hair pad for water
spots. An orbital sander and a Scotch-Brite© pad (green pad) works well
for water spots. If the tile is a little dull use some enhancer to give it a
little life.

You can also try a product called gel gloss, I don’t use
it but all my ceramic cleaners swear by it! Must be because of how easy it is
to use.

I am getting a client's home ready for the market.
She wants to spiff up her shower tiles. Usually, I use a white pad on my hand
held makita, with a little water to lubricate. Does anyone out there
have any other ideas to polish these ceramic tiles? |
