Default Floor grout cleaning

Hi

Anyone know a firm that cleans floor tiles and revives grout? Thinking of Spanish version of carpet cleaner ;-) Thanks

It's an easy job if you get some aguadente - as easy as mopping the floor. You have to be a bit careful - wear gloves and eye protection for example - but it'll cost you around 5€ for a decent sized patio.

Hola

Agua Fuerte is an acid and should be used with very good ventilation - but yes it will do the job well - just use plenty of water to wash the acid away

Of course! Aguadente is a different strong spirit

BTW, unlike the UK, you can buy full strength acid in the hardware store - I got some in AKI in Faro. Our concierge got me a litre for 1€ in an unmarked bottle.
