How to remove yellow stain on tiles?

Question

I have reoccurring stains on tiles in my bathroom. This was a new bathroom 4yrs ago but the fall is terrible so water pools outside and inside the shower area. I have tried to seal the tiles with Betta tile and grout sealer but it didn’t last. Any suggestions about some other option (other than ripping up the tiles and starting over) would be great. I usually clean this with bicarbonate or gumption but this is a temporary fix.

Hello @znelson

I propose using Glitz 2L Cleaning Vinegar on your tiles to remove the yellow stain. Another product you can try is CLR 750ml Bathroom And Kitchen Cleaner. Make sure to give both cleaning products enough time to activate before washing it off. Make sure to scrub the surface with a bristle brush to scrape off any debris that may have been left behind.

Allow the tile floor to dry up and make sure that the grout is dry as well. When you are sure that the tiled floor is totally dry, I propose using CPC 220ml Shower Plug Sealant to seal the tiles and grout.

If you need further assistance, please let us know.
