This really works!!! I just added a very little Dawn dish washing soap and WOW!!! Depending on how bad your floor is, because mine was really bad so I put one cup of peroxide and a heaping half cup of baking soda and tablespoon of dawn dish washing soap in to a bucket and I poured it on slow with a small cup and did small areas at a time. It’s amazing! My floor is 18 years old and it did great on this old floor! 👍🏻 Thank you so much for posting this!
Ingredients: Hydrogen Peroxide 3% Solution (you can buy Peroxide 3% 1 gallon as shown here for like $10) Baking Soda Vinegar (optional) how I mix: (usually I do the paste style, but in the video it seems like there's more amount of HP than soda) 1 cup of Hydrogen Peroxide 2 cups of Baking soda > Mix it until u get a consistent paste, then spread it all over the area you want to clean. > Let it sit for 10mins > then pour some small amount of vinegar and scrub it repeatedly until you see results. > Pour warm water to clean it completely. You're welcome! 😉 PS. i clean worse places than this for work, this solution i always use, sometimes i use stronger chemicals but i won't recommend it.
When adding vinegar how much do you use per gallon? Can this be auto scrubbed? Did it leave a residue or haze over the tile afterwards? Do you have any videos of some jobs you’ve done using this method? I’ve got a client with extremely filthy tile and I want to clean but the grout and tile are uneven surfaces so I know I’ll have to do grout lines first. Looking for other videos similar to this. Thanks for your input
This absolutely works. My kitchen floors are linoleum and are probably 35 years old. They had so much build up on I was considering painting it. I tried this and it stripped every bit of the grime buildup down to the beautiful original color. Thank you for posting this.
I used peroxide and baking soda on tile floor to clean grout and it really worked: put 3% peroxide on grout, tooth-brushed in baking soda - worked it in; did a 2’ or 3’ square and let it sit for 10 minutes. Came back with wet green scrubber/ yellow sponge washed over. Then washed away with clear water in those zephrhills bottles, used cotton cloth to spread clear water, used synthetic rain-x swiped (synthetic chamois) to sop up water, wiped dry with micro-fiber cloth to a shine! For shower and bathroom wall tiles used 1/2 cup Heinz’s cleaning vinegar (6% acidity) with 1/2 cup blue dawn - sprayed on tiles and wait 8-10 minutes. Sprayed with water and used soft bristled scrub brush to spread it around. Then followed same clean up routine for floor described above - green scrubber/yellow sponge, water, cloth, chamois, micro-fiber cloth till shine. Lot of steps, goes slow, give yourself time but they sparkle! (Some say vinegar hurts some tile - so read up for your particular tile. Mine were older ceramic or porcelain). For floor, have towels for kneeling and have buckets for capturing sopped up water! For walls - I used plastic dust pan to capture water and pour into well-positioned bucket; also used towel at wall base to prevent water from spreading out onto floor.
Thank you for the detailed information. I just used bleach water on my tile floors. I live in a military dorm that was built in the 60's or 70's and doubt anyone has ever actualy taken the time to clean them properly since. I have an automatic scrubbing mop (has two pads that spin around to scrub) and even with that it took hours to get the grout to even a yellow color from black. but the down side is the tile does not shine at all. Going to try your method maybe this week and hopefully have better results.
Even though something cleaned that tile, so much viewers' time was wasted because no product was shown, no formula given. The liquid was yellowish, i.e. not the clear color of hydrogen peroxide, and it was poured from a large container of the type used for commercial cleaners, not the type used for hydrogen peroxide in my part of the world. The white stuff may have been sodium bicarbonate (baking soda) or it could have been sodium carbonate (washing soda) or it could have been Oxy-Clean or a commercial powdered laundry whitener, for all anyone knows. What I learned is that it is possible to clean really dirty tiles, but with no formula and their hiding both the labels and the containers the liquid and the white powder came in, viewers will never know for sure unless they experiment. I hope the formulas viewers reported, including the use of mild dish detergent (Dawn in the USA), will turn out to work.
Anonymous98 it says peroxide and baking soda. I’d go 50/50 on peroxide and water and 32 oz baking soda. Mix together well and let dissolve for maybe an hour
I spray straight hydrogen peroxide, saturating my tile floors and let it sit for about 30 minutes or maybe an hour, and then I mopped all that up and then remoped it with clean water and your normal cleaning product. It strips the floor of all the built up dirt. It works perfect every time. I always have big bottles of hydrogen peroxide in my home for this specific reason. Plus they are numerous uses for peroxide as I'm sure y'all know.
Yep. I keep big bottles of peroxide too. I have a brown peroxide spray bottle and I mix a little bit of dish soap (very little) and the rest is peroxide. I spray my shower/tub and let sit, then come back with a lite long handled scrubber and it works great. I don't get all the fumes from chemical cleaners. I use unscented dish soap. I also can use this in my toilet and it cleans it well too.
This really works- thanks!!! I didn't make my solution as pasty as the video as I had added more water but darn! All the dirt came right up using a scrub brush on a mop stick and then followed by a wet clean water mop to soak up the dirty solution. Floor looks brand new!!!
Has tile on my patio with a deep fryer spilled vegetable oil from fish, dried hard on the floor tried everything would not come up tried this came right up tile looks great.
It seems clear to me that, based on the title of the video, the "product" is a mixture of peroxide and baking soda. Also, if you add just a bit of Dawn detergent to that mixture, it’ll take the skunk smell right off of a freshly skrunk sprayed dog. It is a super cleaner!!!
Unless you have a way to THROUGHLY rinse this you will end up with a white film of baking soda. Depending on how dark your grout is it will really show. Owned a clawing company 32 years and got called in to clean up the mess this causes. Stick with things that require no rinsing. Baking soda will show if left behind. All powdered products go back to powder once all the water is gone.
@@riyazahmedbaig8361 vinegar and baking soda are great natural cleaners and combined have a chemical reaction that cleans soap scum and other buildup without using harsh chemicals.
@ Riyaz ahmed baig 2 teaspoon to a quart of vinegar is great for hard water mineral deposits. Otherwise just hot water + vinegar (even heated of possible) works lovely in areas that does not have hard water on it. Vinegar is an acid which helps clean. In areas where there is no mineral deposits there is no need for baking soda because vinegar will neutralize it.
That's what I am talking about! I just tried peroxide on some spots in my bathtub and I used the abrasive part of a dish sponge.That started to remove the stains,but it seemed like it could have used some help.I figured that combining baking soda would be amazing.Thank you for confirming what I suspected.I will get some baking soda this afternoon.OMG.I am excited about cleaning the bathroom tub...the end is coming...
She gave it to you. 1 cup of hydrogen peroxide, heaping 1/2 cup of baking soda and 1 TBL of Dawn into a bucket (filled all the way) with very hot water. After scrubing. Mop the floor with plain hot water to clean. If you want, you can put 1 cup of vinegar in the water, to make the floor sparkle
Not fake, tried it last night an works amazingly. Thank you. I've bought different expensive floor cleaners and they didn't work but this did instantly.
I know it's peroxide but there are different products available in the market. Can you please share the link of the product you bought ? I'll really appreciate that.
I want to use it, does it destroy the top layer. I'm afraid because some strong acids diluted with water i tried before destroyed the tiles top layer making it doff
I made a paste of Hydrogen Peroxide and Baking Soda. Let it sit for 10 minutes on my yellow stained linoleum. Scrubbed with hot water and a little bit of Dawn dish detergent. The stain was not removed. It didn't even get lighter. So this did not work for me. My mom used to have a dog who would pee on the training pad. Sometimes the dog missed and so the pee stained the linoleum.
So many people said "whats the chemical name ?", Its the Cleaner made by mixing "Hydrogen Peroxide" (Bought in any chemical store) and Baking soda (Bought at any baking ingridients shop). If you still dont know where to buy those, CALL 911, i guess your brain has some bad sectors, better read first before you insult someone who are trying to help
looks like a pressed cement based tile, not ceramic. The acid in the h2o2 dissolves the surface and removes not only the soiling but also part of the top of the tile. A big job to do the whole of the floor and working with h202 which will bleach your skin, dissolve your eyes and lungs. Good luck with that mate!
@@pamela2844 h2o2 is very unstable by itself, so it is kept in an acid solution to keep it safe, it has pH below 7 so it's acidic. It is an oxidising agent and highly corrosive, if you want to tell people it is safe to put in their mouth you are just plain uneducated. Put some on your fingers and watch your skin go white and burn. Google it and see how dangerous it is. Yes it can be used occasionally for teeth whitening at a percentage below 3% but not for everyday cleaning.
To everyone commenting with confusion and anger (lol) take some time to experiment with it. Try 1:1 ratio of 1 peroxide and 1 baking soda, then try 2 peroxide and 1 baking soda, then 3:1, so on n so forth. They switch the ratio around 2 baking soda to 1 peroxide. Try it. Don't get mad. Things don't come to those who wait, things come to those that do. You searched, and found this, right? You had to do. Then they gave you a bit of help, now you try:)
Would this brighten the dirty dark grout too? grout on my floor is dirty dark color from the hurricane surge water that came in.and left my grout looking disgusting
Peroxide and hydrogen peroxide are not the same thing chemically, one is a group, the other is a molecule. "Peroxide" is not "available at my nearest grocer." People without much experience in cleaning might be confused by the use of language here, they might go looking for something they can't find. They might give you a downvote.
what amounts of each did you use? I am very desperate to clean this ugly tile flooring that we have in our mechanical garage... any suggestions would really be appreciated. thank you and god bless
There is a reason folks are lamenting the lack of details provided. For example, If I tell you I made amazing lemonade with sugar and lemons without providing *_a complete ingredient list WITH measurements,_* you’d have no idea how to replicate it, but feel free to waste time experimenting until you get the formula/recipe correct.
I used arm and hammer and 3% H2O2 and the results were effective (but definitely not like the above video). Only problem is it left a TON of white chalking behind, even though I used a wet vac immediately after scrubbing to get the excess water up. When I went to mop the chalkin up the next day (depending on the sunlight hit it) you could still see trails. Also careful how you pour the water, if it splashes it will get all over your appliances (dishwasher ,frig) and stain it. Won't use this method again.
Those look like steps. Perhaps that is why they look so dirty. Are we sure that is tile? If so, what kind? I have a huge den that looks like tile, but it is stamped concrete.
