my matte floor tiles are shiny in places from using regular floor cleaners. Can you please recommend a method and suitable cleaner please?
Hello @Robyn30
Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community. It's sensational to have you join us, and thanks for sharing your question about cleaning your floor tiles.
It sounds like the matt coating on your floor tiles have worn out or the mop/broom you are using is producing a scrubbing effect that is polishing the surface of the tile. I propose looking at using - https://www.bunnings.com.au/selleys-750ml-complete-clean-multi-surface-floor-cleaner_p0443243 , https://www.bunnings.com.au/peerless-jal-1l-versadet-neutral-floor-cleaner_p4466218 and https://www.bunnings.com.au/long-life-2l-general-purpose-floor-cleaner_p4460495 as alternative cleaning products.
As for the cleaning implement, I suggest the - https://www.bunnings.com.au/sabco-supadry-spin-mop-bucket-gen2-with-bonus-refill_p0375272 or the https://www.bunnings.com.au/sabco-rinse-n-wring-gen-2-microfibre-mop-set-with-bonus-refill_p0458953 as these have soft heads and will not scrub the tile surface too harshly.
If the polished surface continues to spread, I suggest speaking to a professional about recoating your tiled surface with a matt sealer.
If you have any other questions we can help with, please let us know.

Hi @Robyn30,
Just checking in to see how you went with your floor tiles.
Were you able to find a cleaning method that helped restore the matte finish? I'd be interested to hear how you got on and whether the appearance of the tiles improved.
If you have any further questions or need a hand with any other projects around the home, please let us know.
